Have you been asked about LPG as you filled up?

LPG interest on the forecourt!

Post by VWlewis »

Have you also had this experience - today as I filled up the guy next to me approached me to ask about LPG conversions (he had a VW Passat 1.8T and I guess he was feeling the pinch!) Has anyone else been asked about LPG as they filled up - if so was it recently?

Please answer the poll! Thanks :D

Had a chat at the pump to a guy with a Mitsubishi EVO :lol: He paid the same as I did but I got more than twice as much fuel :lol: he said he'd be back in in 3 days for the same amount of petrol. I told him I'd be back in a week, he was very light with the throttle when he left the forecourt :lol: :lol:
