I do agree to some extent with things like Knife edging, porting & polishing and skimming shit up. It all adds up, but not to a majorly noticeable level without the engine being modified highly already. Which someone has said already I'm sure. On something like a pretty much standard Saxo engine, its not really worth the hassle in my opinion.. Although, if you can do it yourself..for free. Then why not.
Although, New Kawasaki 10R engines come with alot of the above done as standard. So if kawasaki are doing it to there engines to the limit, then it must make some difference as appose to prior.

Pretty sure theres someone on here with a low 600kg 106.
I had mine near 700KG's, with FG bonnet, polycarbs and a day spent with an angle grinder cutting the bay and interior apart.

Really..? Does a Saxo/106 have 300kg too lose from factory..?
Edit: I'd of thought you'd struggle to get below 800kg wet weight.

Yep, it was originally a 1.1 shell to start with, so slightly lighter.
Bearing in mind I got my figures done when there was no dashor interior at all..Just a set of Clocks, the odd button, 1 Drivers bucket & harness.
Alot of the internal metal Cut out, windows replaced, Fibreglass panels, bumpers cut up, No sunroof etc etc. All adds up.
