LPG on Fifth Gear

#1 Post by 325i »

There was a very good clip on Fifth Gear on Monday about LPG. Overall it was a very good video showing the savings possible and its safety.

Im sure the episode will be repeated and maybe available online to view.

When I first started doing gas conversions in 1996. Dinosaurs roamed the earth and petrol was 52-55p a litre ! LPG was 26-29p.
Nowadays petrol is £131-141
LPG is .69-.79.
It's pretty constant tbh. A 2:1 ratio. Just goes up with the fuel duty, inflation and the retail price index.
If I had a pound for every time everyone said 'the government will tax it if it gets too popular' I would be sitting on a beach somewhere with a pocket full of pound coins :lol: :lol:

When i seen the trailer with the explosion thought it was
going to be a stitch up job but the actual broadcast segment
was very positive.
