Re: westy pop top dimensions and weight
hi there
just checked my german fahrzeugbrief which is like your british v5 but contains far more imformation and according to it a westy pop top is 2310 kg. this is for an Aircooled van though i would imagine a watercooled van would be different. hope this helps.

Re: westy pop top dimensions and weight
By the time it's crated up the box will be approx. 3.5 metres long and 1.6 wide (the same size as my T3 roof carrying roof-rack
) and 250-300mm high. Weight? I'd guess 50kg easy plus the crate itself...it's going to get expensive

With standard -30 drop and those metal roof mounts that most California's seem to have you are looking at 1.94 metres tall.
