# Assumptions:
# 1. The Mercedes SL230 has a rear-wheel drive with the engine located at the front of the car.
# 2. The fuel tank is usually located at the rear of the car, over or near the rear axle.
# 3. The cargo in the back trunk is also over or near the rear axle.
# 4. The driver and passenger are seated in the front, which is also over the front axle.
# Constants
total_weight = 1000 # in kg
driver_weight = 100 # in kg
passenger_weight = 65 # in kg
fuel_weight = 60 # in kg
cargo_weight = 100 # in kg
scale_height_difference = 5 / 100 # converting scale height difference to meters
# Weight distribution assumptions based on car model and typical layout
front_weight = driver_weight + passenger_weight # front axle weight
rear_weight = total_weight - front_weight # rear axle weight
rear_weight += fuel_weight + cargo_weight # additional weight over the rear axle due to fuel and cargo
# Calculating the effect of the scale height difference
additional_rear_weight = (rear_weight / (rear_weight + front_weight)) * scale_height_difference
# Total weight on the scale (right two wheels)
weight_on_scale = rear_weight + additional_rear_weight
return weight_on_scale
