One other thing I did discover was the conversion did not help with re-sale value but the conversion easily paid for itself. I used to get 16-17mpg on petrol and the equiv of 32mpg on LPG!

Now I have the X5 3.0D and yes LPG conversions can be applied to desiel cars but it is a much more expensive install.

I didn't know that, any idea how the economy suffers compared to the diesel? Do you know of anywhere in NI that does the conversion?
