LPG/sat nav

Morning All
No I have not got lpg powered sat nav.......
Just an update on my lpg conversion.

Runs well - no difference that I can tell. getting 21mpg average on gas (was getting 25.5 on petrol) Taking this into acount I save £17 per 55litres. Thus since fitting have saved £289. This includes £10 super unleaded to keep pet half full.

Over 12 months anticipate savings of £1050. So 14 months should see conversion cost covered...

My 2.8 Elegance 2003 has not got sat nav - where could I get one from and is it easy to fit?

Thanks in advance!!

Re: LPG/sat nav

Any problems so far with the conversion? I had an old Saab 9-5 converted, though it turned out to be a false economy. (Poor installation was the main problem). That was about 4 years ago so hopefully things have moved on in the LPG world. Personally I have been scared off the stuff, but am always interested to hear how people are getting on.

Which sort of tank did you go for?

Would love a 2.8 Superb by the way.

So far no problems. Have a 74litre do'nut tank in spare wheel well. Takes 68litres from empty. Sequential injection system (sounds good)!!
Very pleased.
