Mine has arrived a couple of days ago now. I have only had a quick flip through so far. Where the book quotes weights the author doesn't seem to have noted the difference between 5 & 3 door 200's hatches! It's in every Haynes manual I'm sure?

I think you will find that the weights for each body style are in the chapter relating to that body style.
