well worth it for the fuel cost more than anything.

however, go for one of the newer multipoint systems as they provide better mpg compared to the earlier systems. it involves drilling gas injectors into the inlet manifold, and it also uses the lambda probes in the exhaust to adjust the mixture to make sure it's running right.

I'm considering a Discovery in the near future, my thoughts were a petrol with LPG conversion to offset fuel costs. What saving if any on road tax will an LPG convesion attract?

I have LPG installed. 20 litters on petrol for 100km and 22 of liquid gas comparing. The system has 8 separate gas injectors. But I loose a little in power (just a little).
