You asked for it :-)

From my 1987 owners manual:
Panelvan: 1540 kg
Panelvan, high roof: 1590 kg
Kombi (like panel, with windows) 1615 kg
Kombi highroof: 1665 kg
Caravelle/ Kombi L: 1700 kg
Caravelle GL: 1730 kg
Joker (westy) with pop top: 1860 kg
Joker highroof: 1900 kg
Pickup: 1540 kg
Pickup with bigger bed: 1635 kg
Doublecab: 1595 kg

2WDs are generally 150 kg lighter.
