Bob T Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 All that I can say is that the gallons in the old days must have been huge! If you can get 70 mpg out of it then you should be getting 2174 mpg out of a modern diesel with your driving style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerdesal Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Back in 2005 there was a thread on GPL cars - http://www.completefrance.com/cs/forums/580381/ShowPost.aspx.This indicated that a UK GPL (lpg) conversion was not acceptable in France. Does anyone know if the situation has changed since the introduction of the LPGA certification.If not, does anyone have any websites for conversion in France after arrival with a C of C petrol vehicle and subsequent French registration.

vervialle Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I had a brand new freelander,after three new engines within three years, the first two landrover paid for, the last one was down to me we ended up selling it for scrap and lost thousands,I hate the company and if you go on the website concerning engine problems , you will find hundreds of other people who have lost so much money, how they have got away with this scandal is mind blowing, I would not touch them with a barge pole naturally.
