Hi, possibly a quickie, anyone know what the weight of a swift challenger 450/5 SE is? I cant remember what it is.

I may be needing to get a frien to tow it home for me , as Im due to collect it on wednesday, and as damn luck, and the law of murphey would have it, the release bearing on my car went bang today, dammit!

Im only booked to go away next weekend!

I just need to check their car can pull it first.

Hi Tim

Sorry, I don't know the answer. 

But it might help you to get a reply if you say what year the van is.  In my experience the weight/width/length of vans change almost every year, even when the model name remains consistent.
