Retired from a vocation, looking for an occupation:D
I have a D2 with twin 40 litre tanks in the place of the old petrol one and a 9 gallon petrol tank. There is no loss of power with the multi point systems and you are so green its fantastic. CO2 yes but no Fuel impurities, no oil dilution/ degradation (you have a problem to see how much oil is on the dipstick it is that clean), and the big thing that no one talks about is pm10s, particulates that are smaller that 10 peco meters (thats 10,000,000,000,000 of a meter) these are so small that they are breathed in and go into the lungs and stick there, your body cannot get rid of them. Then they interact with your bod and can cause cancer. All cars running petrol emit these, even hybrids (when they are running on petrol):exclamation:
One thing about the v8 engine is cam wear on the outer positions - known problem caused by oil degradation from the fuel, if you change your oil every 2.4k miles your ok, but with gas its great.
I like gas - also if you go abroad, belgium ~27p L-1, and in poland ~15 to 18pL-1 !!!!!
If you have any other questions.........
When I bought mine the dealer recommended someone to do a conversion in the Mancheter area, can't remember who, but said that they would honour any warranty on parts that had not been fiddled with (eg suspension, electrics etc) and that the conversion itself should not cause any warranty problems on the engine unless it was poorly fitted. I understand that alot of Petrol FFRR's and RRS's have been converted fresh out of the showroom with no warranty impact. Craig Steger-Lewis

It will probably invalidate any warranty you might have.
I will have to discuss that with my personal advisor :D Thanks for the tip. -------------

I reckon the bigger boot area in the D3 would mean you wouldn't miss the loss of space as much. -------------
Fuel about 40p / ltr at the moment. No noticable problem with performance. PLENTY of places to get LPG. Bought 2 of the vehicles with the conversions on and didnt pay any more above a non LPG, converted one, recovered the cost within a year and think I ran it for about 5 years with it on.
Main suggestions, use a REPUTABLE installer. Get as large a tank as you can to reduce the pain of refuelling. The RR is OK for about 250 to 300 miles between fills depending on type of driving. Think it takes 80 ltr to fill.
The 2 other options are the torpedo tank in the boot in which case I think you can go up to about 120 litres or so, or on other cars and D1's you can fit a pair of tanks behind the sills underneath on each side - on the DII there isn't enough room and the air compressor for the suspension is in the way anyway :(
With both of those options you can keep the original petrol tank Peter Jarrett, ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------G4 Discovery II V8 from South Africa 2003 Challenge.
