    Further to my previous post asking about mpg on legacy/foresters, mpg seems pretty poor.. has anyone any experience of fitting LPG to one of these vehicles ?

  • Seat Leon Cupra & LPG 28 Mar 2003 (Forum)
    The only problem is that I\'ve just changed jobs and am commuting about 300 miles a week, and the fuel costs are starting to cause a bit of a dent! Apparently, the Cupra 1.8 20VT engine has just been approved for LPG conversion. It would cost me about £1300 to covert. I was interested - BUT Seat informed me that if I had LPG fitted it would invalidate their 3 year mechanical warranty. So, I have 3 options: 1) Covert to LPG and gamble that nothing major goes wrong with the engine. 2) Sell the Cupra and go for the Diesel Leon. 3) Stop drinking so much beer and carry on running on petrol.
  • LPG 18 Jul 2011 (Forum)
    I have come across a 1980s Jaguar XJS for sale which has been converted to LPG.  I'm intrigued by the car and I'd like to go and look at it. Does anyone have LPG?  It wouldn't be a problem round my way with filling it up; there's several stations with it.  I've got my own list of pros and cons with this car and I would like to know what you lot think as well!
  • Second hand LPG cars - worth buying? 5 Jun 2005 (Forum)
    In my quest to keep down the cost of motoring I'm interested to know if a S/H LPG conversion is a sensible choice. We have an LPG retailer 5 miles away, on a route we use. We do mixed motoring, but not often more than 35 miles at a time (hence my user name), as we also live close to a good train service.
