In a since locked thread about outfit matching services reference was made to kerbweight being a variable. I don't want to get into a lengthy discussion regarding other statements made in the topic (I presume that the thread was locked due to the likelihood of it becoming a long drawn out matter) but I would just like to quote the definition of kerbweight and leave it at that. Perhaps things will be a bit clearer that it is not variable:
The Road Vehicles (Construction & Use) Regulations 1986 define kerbweight as follows:
the weight of a vehicle when it carries—
(a) in the case of a motor vehicle,
(i) no person; and
(ii) a full supply of fuel in its tank, an adequate supply of other liquids incidental to its propulsion and no load other than the loose tools and equipment with which it is normally equipped;
(b) in the case of a trailer, no person and is otherwise unladen.
