Welcome aboard The subject has come up on here a few times but I'm not convinced by LPG. Nowhere near me sells it and it costs just over half as much as unleaded and you get just over twice the fuel consumption so I don't think it adds up. If it did, more folk would convert to LPG and more manufacturers would install LPG tanks as standard. Andrew ....but you don't buy an M5 and then worry about fuel consumption. |

I am considering converting a 5.0l V8 BMW E39 M5 to run on
LPG, as I am concerned about the running costs at 20mpg ish.
Are there any negatives to an LPG conversion on a high performance engine such as this? Any reccomendations for installers? Any 'Dos and Donts'? Thanks |
