    LPG conversions tend to cost about £1500 to start with, then lpg now cost about 60p a litre after the government took away their subsidy for it, it used to be less than 30p at one time, i used to fill up a work van and it cost about £15.
    Plus you need to work out what it'll be worth in savings, knowing that you had to pay out alot of money for the conversion in the first place.
    Thanks to all the competition posters.

    Sorry but lol at playing the student in poverty card and then saying you drive a 330 - surely the other running costs are just as bad as the fuel bill.

    I'm thinking of getting my subaru impreza 2.5 wrx turbo converted to LPG. Has anyone got any experience of LPG converted performance cars. the fuel is much cheaper, about half the price of petrol.

    LPG was less than half the price of petrol, Its creeping up a bit faster though.

    In 2008 i was paying 40p - 45p a litre when petrol was hitting more than 115p a litre, Now its 60p +

    Expect it to start rising again soon, Price seems to increase a little while after petrol does.
