Hi Fairwynds, its Emmz!!

Hey, im doing exactly the same as you - looking for someone in Sussex, but no luck so far - there is supposed to be a guy in Ringmer, near Lewes who ive emailed a few times, but no reply.

I know Steve at Gasure said he's booked up until October! :(

Now this is the good news. :shock: :D

Recently, I wrote an article here about the length of time it could take to recover the costs of going LPG if you are only cover about 4K yearly. As many VW camper owners do.

Well, I'm not too arrogant to admit I have been proven totally wrong. Especially with the recent murderous price hikes of petrol. Moreso considering I have covered over 9K this year instead of my estimated 5-6k.

Around here (se London) petrol prices have generally increased from 105p ltr to 122p ltr in recent months. By comparision LPG has risen from around 55p to just 61.9p ltr. Yes, I've been keeping tabs on local prices to justify my article. Well that's now been blown to smithereens :shock:

So I'm ready to go LPG.

Steve, I got your reply several days ago to my home email. Thanks.
You didnt mention the Essex place then, when do you think it'll be operational? I dont want to not book van in with you (for Oct earliest as you said) only to find Essex may do it next month! If you see what I mean?
Cheers.
