Don't know about the 1600, but the 2000  varies according to the source.

The 1974 Owner's Manual (USA version) says 2305 lbs curb weight.
The Factory brochure I have (very large, heavy bond, in italian) says: "Peso
in ordine di marcia kg   1040 (which translates to 2288 lb).
According to Car & Driver July 72 issue, the 2000 weighted 2335 lbs.
Autocar magazine, July 72 also quotes a "Kerb Weight of 20.6 cwt (2,301
lb-1,044 kg) (with oil, water and half full fuel tank)
Go figure.
I'm sure John H will cuote differently from his vast sources.
