I put my car through IVA this week...Sylva J15 with a 1.7 Puma engine. It came out with a full tank of fuel at around 500kgs, which surprised me to be
honest..in a good way of course.

About 720 kg, mostly thanks to a heavy engine and correspondingly large / strong chassis and diff to handle the power. Goes well though.

Some of these numbers are amazing. My Phoenix is 610Kg is 1/2 tank of fuel (9 Gall tank). Mind you the bodywork has been on there for almost 20
years so it is thick fibreglass.
