No Mike, I have a Stag kit in the Saloon with a cylinder tank in the boot. I'm looking at a Toroidal tank in the Estate wheelwell this time round, but Paul (L.D.) tells me Teilo has stopped doing the Stag systems so i'm in a bit of a quandry at the moment. I've seen the KME Diego system advertised at a very good price but know nothing about them :-\

I'd spotted this on the bay recently but know nothing about lpg systems, so don't know whether it's any good or not  :-X

Phil, don't panic... He might still have some stock ;)

He also has a different system (or should have) which is cheaper and better :y

I'm new to Omega ownership but I have always admired/wanted one.  A few weeks ago I bought a 2001 Y plate 2.5 CDX, mint inside and mechanicly sound but a little rough round the edgeds (bumpers bascily b******) and a couple of scuffs here and there. The farther in law thinks I'm crazy for buying one and that the V6 engines are crap (he's a Vauxhall tech and has been since the dawn of time) but I'm loving in.  Oven the last 2 weeks I have done just under 400 miles off one tank of juice and the light (and I know it works  ;) ) aint come on yet, the computor is saying 34.6mpg but am still thinking about putting a LPG concersion on her as most months I'll be doing 1300+ miles in her.
Having read a few bit here n there on LPG kits what would be the best for me, and what's the cost involved?

Thats why he doesn't like them, because he doesn't understand them, and is quite fussy on workmanship of mechanics working on them. Torque wrenches essential on some parts.
