Hello Herman,

 HT> maximum gross vehicle weight, in kilograms?  Do you think
 HT> the people who put those stickers on the car are not
 HT> following a procedure mandated by law?

Sorry to burst your bubble but on the registration of my car it says:

Massa ledig voertuig: 950 kg
Toegestane maximum massa aan te koppelen aanhanger:
geremd: 1000 kg, Ongremed: 450 kg.

Mass of empty vehicle and maximum allowed mass of trailer with and without brakes.

Massa (mass) appears to be the legal term here in the Netherlands. Not
"gewicht" (weight).

Regards, Michiel
