Re: Mazda bongo 2.5 v6 petrol mpg?
Welcome to the forum . I've got a V6 with an LPG conversion and it's nice to pay around 50p / litre (at the moment anyway). For a V6 it's worth budgeting around £1800-2000 for a good quality conversion. There are places that will do it for for less but with LPG if it's not setup 100% you can find it lacks in performance and reliability and then it makes the whole exercise pointless.

Ella, it might be worthwhile doing your sums on LPG , also check availability in your local area, more and more fuel stations are dumping the LPG pumps.
Good Luck..

Good point about doing the sums. I was considering getting an LPG conversion on my V6 but on the likely mileage I'll do (it's not my main vehicle), it would take 3 to 4 years to break even on the cost of conversion.

You'll be having so much fun, you soon won't even think about MPG.
