It should be on a plate on your van too. My Miro, or unladen weight, is 1290 and my laden is 1443. My unladen included a gas bottle but not my leisure battery. I got so obssessed in the end with weighing everything down to the last gram that I visited a local weighbridge!
My motor mover alone was 34kg! I have to check everything in and everything out in terms of weight! Too much time on my hands?! Lol!!

Right have found the manual it says delivery weight is 915kg including all standard fittings (not sure if this includes gas or battery) Max laden weight is 1200kg so that means I have 285kg to load right??
Feel very guilty that we have not properly checked this out before !

Yes that is right for your payload. What the delivery weight is varies from make to make. I know the Aterlings used to include the leisure battery and spare tyre but not the gas cylinder. The model we have included just the cylinder and nothing else! It should say in your handbook what is included. Failing that, perhaps a call to the dealer.
It is surprising how quickly things add up. A parent I know said " Oh we jusy sling everything in the van, don't worry about it!". When I bought my van, I asked the chap we bought it from how much he reckons is in the van. He said o more than 1400kg. When I visited the weighbridge, it was fluctuating betweem 1450-1470kg (bad wind that day - not me, the wether in general, which apparently affects the reading).

If the spare tyre is a standard fitting for that model, then it will be included in the MRO.
The clothes go in the boot as that's the wifes job to pack and it's always the last job to be done. I've already loaded the van with food, booze, bikes, bedding and kids toys so the boot is the only place left.
