LPG

Post by RS6 Mugello » Sun Apr 01, 2007 9:08 pm

Living in central London I am confronted with the congestion charge every day (£8 with the threat of £25 per day next year). Rather than trade in the beast I am considering an LPG conversion. Anyone done a conversion or know of any potential problems to avoid?:mech:

The idea of having the :addict: and being congestion charge exempt is very tempting.

Thanks

I live in Central London too. I use a scooter during the week. No con charge or parking fees, and 10 minutes to get anywhere. I use the RS6 at night, and weekends. Cheaper than a used Taxi and I get to earn some extra money at night delivering pizzas!

Would agree though, if the job is suited then a scooter is the way to go in busy cities.

I was also told by someone that I was doing the right thing by balancing my carbon footprint.
I told them that they must be confusing me with someone who gives a damn.
