Not strictly true, the rack will still be full of fluid and still rather heavy. If you can live with it full of fluid then winner winner

Just be aware of mot and insurance implications

if its speced for your car and its not there they can fail your car on mot and im sure it would invalidate your insurance as well.
If you remove it fully a MOTer may not spot it missing ;) :lol:
