Dacia now offering LPG across the range

[ACCYSTAN]

Dacia are now selling there entire range with a factory fitted LPG option.

Are there any other manufacturers offering factory fitted LPG?

In the UK or in general?

Fiat offer quite a few lpg version in Europe but not in the uk

It's only a £400 option too. Seems like an absolute no-brainer if you want the petrol version and have access to LPG filling stations.

In the UK

Cars come as duel fuel , 1.0 petrol engine and LPG

LPG tank is in the spare wheel well

Not an issue in the Logan MCV with its huge boot which is larger than a 5 series estates boot, but no doubt an annoyance in the Sandero if you want to carry a full size spare.

I'm sure you might have looked on this already, but I'll just add this here anyway, you can find a bunch of manufacturers who are now adding LPG Factory Fitted cars on their range, here's the link https://www.glpautogas.info/en/uk-factory-fitted-l... . Cheers!

Agreed i wouldn't hesitate to check that option.

good option ,just hope it's reliable as lpg burns a lot hotter this is why you see lots of old jags and bmw's that were converted years ago with stuffed engines.Headgasket takes a pounding, Vauxhall tried lpg in Astras in 2000,s but were rubbish on durability.

Every time one of these things catch fire the police close the whole area off because of the high risk of explosion and it is a bigger explosion than petrol !

20 years ago I had a Range Rover on LPG and it was very good but knowing what I know now I would not have one again

How many times has that happened in the last 12 months?

Duster?

[HTP99]

Existing Sandero, Logan and Stepway are finishing, new Sandro and Stepway are out somepoint next year, Logan in the UK is no more.

We had a bi-fuel Volvo until recently. We hardly ever used the lpg because it’s a bugger to find. Places nearby that used to sell it had stopped as there wasn’t enough demand. Was frustrating as it was cheap as chips on the rare occasion you could find some

[Mikebentley]

There are a couple near me and lots in Birmingham /Black Country. The price does vary somewhat though,. I looked a couple of weeks ago and it was between 45p litre and 75p. I’m waiting on a quote for a Sandero Bi fuel in the new model.

Dacia Sandero, Logan MCV and Duster LPG dual-fuel models now available, allowing 620 miles of range. Dacia has become the only car manufacturer to offer its entire range to UK customers with engines that use a combination of petrol and LPG (liquid petroleum gas).12-Feb-2020

Have had a Duster Comfort LPG for 6 weeks now very pleased.

Hi i somebody said lpg on a vauxhaul Astra was not good just getting to the end of running a Vauxhaul Astra 1.6 8v petrol on lpg for 14 yrs only had the head gasket replaced once in all that time.
P reg 85,000 on the clock i have done 65000 on lpg.
Car cost £800 second hand 10 yrs old with about 20,000 on the clock.

I used to have a vw camper t3 on lpg for years.
Astra still looking good but started a leek in boot and have i have decided too look on a Dacia Sandero or Steway on LPG any views please or experiences please.

[Mikebentley]

brian-j my Dacia Duster is fantastic. The 3cyl 999cc all alloy twin cam is the 100Tce model. 100bhp and is superb to drive. It is more than fast enough, comfortable and very well equipped (see 999cc of throbbing fun) topic on here.

One owner of the old Sandero MCV with the same engine is now well over 150k miles with no issues. My dealer experience has been faultless so far too.

I'm interested in the Duster LPG.

With the LPG Duster, is there any way that a full-size or space-saver spare wheel can be fitted ?
