it doesnt bother me MPG i tend to fill up twice a month circa £200 so compared to my other vehicles its by far the cheapest to run IMO if you want really good MPG the ford fiesta TDCI @ 60+ MPG is a bargain FFRR VS TDCI hmmm onto no6 Range Rover

I do consider it but it doesn't prevent me from buying any car. I guess thats why I had a 3.9V8 Range Rover at the age of 21 and an M5 at 28!

Polux, interesting. I had a 4.4 and a 4.6 P38 on LPG. You are now, by your own figures, doing on £100 of LPG what you did on £400 of petrol? With LPG at around 55 ish pence per litre and petrol 95 ish per litre and by your own admission and my experience, slightly less mpg on gas I don't think so! Are you counting the petrol you use when starting? I reckoned my 4.4 was saving me no more than £10 per week, on an annual mileage of 10k. which when I counted the reduced range, no boot or spare wheel (well not at the same time!) just wasn't worth it. I now run a supercharged and my weekly bill has risen by about £10. But hey, if it works for you then fine,

Might not take as long to recoup the cost. I am guessing a small part of the conversion cost could be recoup come selling time... Fuel consumption doesn't really bother me, but it's still nice to know my TDV8 does over 22mpg round town |
