Well,
I was off the countryside at the weekend and the car had recently been waxed, so it seems as good a time as ever to post some pictures:

They came with the car when I bought it. Needed a clean though!
Lots of vanish, then hosed down with water.
Then a vanish bar followed by a going over with a rug doctor

Looks very smart indeed! I see it's on LPG. How do you find it on LPG?

You dont know it's running off lpg. No perceptible difference.
It switches over from petrol automatically after about 100m from cold
Tank is in the wheel well, range on it I reckon is about 280 miles at a guess.
Mpg drops by about 12% compared to petrol, but penny for penny it is about 47mpg, same as a diesel 75.

I really don't know why more v6 owners don't get their cars converted to LPG.

Excellent! My former 75, now owned by my parents is a 2.0 V6 on LPG, and it's absolutely great! It just seems like the ultimate way to run a V6!
