LPG conversions -- resale values 3 Dec 2008 (Forum)
I was having a look at a couple of LPG conversion websites, and was wondering about the resale values against a diesel car. Say, for the sake of argument a 2.5l petrol car cost about £3000 at 4 years old because of the fuel consumption. A similarly-powered diesel car may well be the thick end -

Subaru Forester II (2002 - ) - 2006 2.5 XTE Convert to LPG or not? 1 Nov 2008 (Forum)
Economically it seems to make sense to have a conversion to lpg given the mileage I do. From an emissions POV it also makes sense and my tax bill will reduce. Trouble is, I cannot find any decent advice as to whether reliability will be adversely affected. Subaru did not offer a conversion -
