The "main man" on this forum, and I think the founder member of Club 80-90 is Steve Shaw. AKA "Gasure" see -> http://www.gasure.co.uk/contact.htm

He is based near Chester and is a VW expert and does lots of LPG conversions.

I had mine done about 3 months ago and cannot recomemnd it (and him) high enough !

Mine cost about £850, but prices will vary a bit depending on your instalation requirments, mine was less complicated because I didn't have much "furniture" in the van at the time.

Running costs are pretty much half that of petrol, and as I use mine as a daily driver, it will pay for itself in about 6 months.

Steve has been away for a week, but no doubt will post on here when he is up to date after getting back.
