The V6 does drive a treat and that LPG cost saving sounds a good one. Just depends on the fitting cost and then I'd have to see how long it would take to pay the cost of fitting back from saved fuel.
I don't think there are any less hoses than in the Diesel, as asked previously, as the engine is still in the centre and the Radiator is still at the front.
I got the Solar Panel fitted to the roof too by the way so the Leisure Battery is always in good nick and it extends the fridge run time away from site hook up or touring. I might post some pics of that on Photobucket later.

I have done 2,767 miles in my V6 over the last two months and have had to put £512.34 worth of fuel in. That comes out at an average fuel consumption of 22.7 MPG 
A quick blast down to Cornwall from Birmingham at a constant 80 mph gave me 22.8 mpg while a slow run on the return trip doing about 60 MPH came out at 27.67 MPG
This puts me on about 18 pence per mile with a best of 15 ppm, so there may be some LPG research in my near future.

I'm getting a V6 soon, just being converted then I'm off.
Done loads of calling and research on LPG conversions. The best I've found are a company in Plymouth quoting £1300 all in, with 65Ltre tank underneath.
How are you guys getting on with LPG, any problems or things to note? definitely getting mine done after I've had it long enough to know it's all okay, cost savings are quite good, around £700 a year or more at 10k miles per annum.
