Kirb weight of cars

[BrewStew]

Can anyone tell me if the kirb weight of your car includes or excludes the weight of a full tank of fuel?

I'm assuming fuel weights 1 kilo per litre, pretty much the same as water

can anyone clarify?

Curb weight - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Curb weight (US) or Kerb weight (UK) is the total weight of a vehicle with standard equipment, all necessary operating consumables (e.g. motor oil and coolant), a full tank of fuel, while not loaded with either passengers or cargo. [1] [2] This definition may differ from definitions used by governmental regulatory agencies or other organizations, for example, many European Union manufacturers include the weight of a 75 kilogram driver in the total. IT also includes the spare tire and jack.

I suspect it's because you put kirb not kerb.

Why am I thinking American History X here...
