Chippy Minton Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 My car finally died last week and it's not worth spending any more more on it. So, with the price of unleaded petrol now, I'm thinking of getting an LPG converted car.Anyone have any experience of these? I've got no real idea - I assume a specialist has to do the servicing etc - are there any local places? Are there many filling stations in the area or am I going to have to go further afield to fill up? What other issues would you consider?

Huguenot Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 Although LPG is half the cost of petrol, it actually requires 30% more fuel to drive around, so the final saving is about 25%.They're about 15% kinder on the environment.Boris has currently proposed that LPGs up to a certain emmissions level don't pay the congestion charge, which is nice. You'd need to check whether your proposed vehicle is green enough.There's a filling map here, which suggests you'd need to go to Camberwell, Peckham or Forest Hill to fill up.
