the 400ltr tank holds about 360ltrs (volume lost to baffles) so water =360kg, tank weighs 27Kg, add rest of equipment = 40Kg

Total = 427Kg
Fuel = 50Kg
Driver = 100Kg (15stone)

Total = 577Kg, this is with a full load of water and a full tank of fuel.

I thought that the pay load was when the van has half full tank of petrol.

Well I thought a 400 ltr tank actually held 400 ltrs....silly me :o
If it ain't bad enough some pole suppliers tell "porkies" about length,  now I'm told tanks ain't what they are stated.
Anything else not what it 's advertised at?
