I would rather convert a known good car, rather than buy an unknown car with an unknown conversion on.

And this is exactly what I did. Twice.

Hi all... Just musing about whether it would be worth thinking of getting my old girl (and i dont the wife) converted to Lpg.
Its not something i could do myself so, any ideas how much it would cost me ?

Much more worthy if you sale your actual car and buy an other one already had converted...

I would say this is a very good idea....
I wouldn't... Actually it's probably a very bad idea!

If your car is up together and running properly, convert it if you want. Buying another car could easily be a money pit ;)

Yes it could be that! Depend on how much you know the car you want to buy! But if you could buy a converted car in the same and wellknown type it can be a very good choice! Not to worry but keep going with open eyes! Good luck!

From what we see on here, rarely does a professional install give trouble free motoring. Entwoods a side there are usually issues.

...and rarely does a non OOF omega either tbh. As with most things knowing the beast is key, a gassed omega works well, but it's two beasts in one to understand.

Buying your own omega, knowing it, servicing and maintaining via this site, then converting to dual fuel as knowledge on the subject grows is the way forward for most.

So as said, far better to convert your known good omega IMO. There are some fackin awful professional installs  about.
