Aaah cheers guys looks like it'll be a gas conversion coming up then. Guy I work with has a frontera on LPG gets 300 miles on £37 sounds better to me than 190 miles on £52 petrol unless there's any other ways of saving money whilst keeping Jim looking the same and running as he does?

Fit an Isuzu 1.7td like Dave CC then you can run it on pure veg oil in summer and 50/50 veg diesel mix in winter.
