This sticker is under the bonnet on the bulkhead. The 3200kg ties in with the Revenue Weight on my V5 ……any ides what the other weights are?
Any idea how to determine the Unladen Weight? Without using the bathroom scale!

2nd is maximum train weight - van + trailer
3rd is max weight on front axle
4th is max weight on rear axle
 
Unladen Weight doesn’t seem to be shown anywhere, which is interesting as it is used as the benchmark for maximum speed.

That’s correct and even the mass in service given on the V5 does not correspond to the unladen weight, but does give a reasonable starting point.
Our GC has a mass in service of 3127kg deduct the 75kg allowance for the driver and some fuel & it’s easy to show we are under 3050 empty.

Unladen weight for 2wd is in the brochure - Mass in running order (but includes weight of driver, full fuel, water, gas tank), 4x4 slightly heavier:
