alternative is to fit torpedo tank length wise, rather than across the back. On either passenger or drivers side. Gives practically to put seats flat, dogs will still have good space


hard to mount though like that arent they?  turn to a missile in a crash...

Strapped down should be fine, no worse than if it was set across. Strapped down my tank is not going anywhere.

Should be ok to mount, filler feed
Don't know about that. What would happen if god forbid you were travelling down the motorway with the kids in the back, someone infront hits the brakes hard, so do you but the 7.5 tonne wagon behind you doesn't stop as quick as you. The back of the estate would crumple as its designed to do but I bet the tank wont :'(

Indeed it wont... Will take more than a little (or big) rear ender to crumple a LPG tank ::)
