Has it gone unnoticed
 
With all the turmoil of MPs Exes and the like has nobody noticed that petrol prices are getting very close to £1 a litre again, my other have went to fill up yesterday and it was 99.2 at her garage near Manchester, what are the prices round this neck of the woods:confused:

Oh OK ... was the system installed when you bought your car ... can't remember if you bought from new ? Do you think the installation has been covered now by the low cost of the fuel ?

Presume you have a filling station that provides this gas near you ? Or do you have a tank in your garden .... :D

There are over 1200 filling stations around the country, In Accy, Dill Hall and the Shell at Rising bridge do it(Nightingales used to not sure if they still do as I rarely get that way). The cheapest places are usually Calor bottled gas outlets or even some Farm shops do it ( I use one just off J19 M6) .

I've never been short of somewhere to fill up and even if I was I can switch back to Petrol as and when I choose even whilst driving along.

This is my 4th LPG car now. I've converted the previous 3 but this one was already done. In all cases I 'saved' well over double the cost of the system. My last car ( Volvo) covered nearly 100K miles on the LPG system.

In my case as a Petrolhead it allows me to drive cars i want to even though I do high mileage. Without it as an option I'd be stuck in a smelly, noisy DERV. :D

I've covered ~ 250K miles on gas now so as you would guess, I'm a convert. :D
