LPG E60 M5 or E92 M3 a good idea?

After reading about all the white AUC ex palmersport M3 being for sale I noticed the mention of them running LPG - any ideas how good an idea LPG is in an M5 or M3?

Really?

I was asking for opinions on a forum I've used for years from individuals who are usually a bit more insightful than that.

And if you follow the links on m5board and here you'll get loads of feedback!

Did you go and Google your Dyson problems or did you stick a thread asking why? You might have googled but you still stuck a thread asking opinions.

Seriously dude, how about we cancel the forum and just google everything...

Someone's been busy!

BTW I did search on my Dyson issue and couldn't find anything conclusive/relevant so decided to post. I also provided some information by the way of a performance comparison at the same time which some may have found useful.

Peace - my post wasn't meant to wind you up but to point you to some answers to your query.

Peace.

I did actually Google the query and just came up with lots of arguing about the subjective value rather than any actual objective merits or negatives on engine longevity and effects on performance.

It's an intriguing proposition for sure.

I had an LPG'd Monaro and it was great. No issues whatsoever and running costs equivalent to 50mpg ish on a long run.

No idea what the BMW would be like but I have seen a few for sale from time to time...

I'm in oz and plenty of lpg'd Holdens as bullet proof engines - fear that M5 engines have a hard enough time not breaking without being messed with
