LPG conversions in sporty cars
Discussion
How about the safety aspect? Say most tanks are in the boot or spare wheel well, what happens to a significant rear end shunt does this increase of flammable chances ?
Also what about the practical side of things, do you install a fuel gauge etc.?
This makes an interesting read.
Tbh I'm looking at b6 s4 audi 4.2 v8 but noticed a handful LPG on the used markets

If you want "economy" - buy a diesel.
To my mind LPG is in a bit of a no-man's-land these days with diesel continually improving.

Or like to listen to a V8 ?
Or enjoy revs ?
Or don't want the risk of diesel injectors, pumps, turbos, DPFs ?
LPG has been a great option for many years.
Currently my wife runs a 165bhp 2.3 Mazda6 - giving the equivalent of 50mpg - she used to run an A6 1.9 TDi 130bhp giving 43mpg
I run a 225bhp 4.6 F150 giving the equivalent of 30mpg - I used to run an Isuzu 150bhp diesel that gave 25mpg.
So both have more power and more economy and sound / drive better.
Mpg is miles per gallon?
Unless you mean £x.xx/mile is less
