Someone call?

Tunnie, I wouldn't advise deleting the mapping... It could end in tears If you take it to Londinium then we can try to meet up towards the end of next week/next weekend and have a looksy at it

Cheers 

That would be great, as it does need a look at. Gave it a good spanking on petrol to MOT to clear emissions, could tell difference from gas. Although still runs ok as in no miss-fires, but high revs an issue. But that always was going to be a known problem.

Trouble is the DTi is a far better for my daily commute and site visits and 620 - 650 miles to a tank makes up for the lack of leather, autobox and the acceleration of the 3.2!

You know the solution, but it means having a spare stash of £ notes

Other way is a 0% APR card for 12 months to buy the kit, I think its the way I have to go, if I LPG the 3.2

While I would love to do it (bundle of used notes permitting) I still don't think i'd use it as much as the DTi so the payback time would be much longer, I'm also not as precious over someone opening their door against the DTi or stone chips from daily use etc.

Have to say I am in exactly the same boat Andy.  I did seriously consider fitting LPG to my 3.2 estate, but as you say I would then have had to use it more in order to claw back the outlay.  But then I would just worry about damaging it in car parks, etc... 

The solution... buy an identical black elite estate with a dti lump, and keep the 3.2 for best! 

I just went for the identical Z157 Star Silver III Elite Saloon approach with mine! 
Theory was that if I'd bought a dud i'd have spare panels, wheels etc for the 3.2!
Had to retrofit a CID though 'cause I had one laying aound.

One tip... Double check which car you are filling at the petrol station, not a problem on your daily car but you have to think about it when you are in the other car.... Or get an account with Lazydocker!

I'm planning on doing the same! 

With already running both petrol and diesel cars in the Twiglet fleet, I always do a double-take at the fuel pumps...
