Can they cope with lpg?

And where would the tank go? The boot is flat & deep ..... I suppose you could fit a few toroidal tanks flat on the boot floor     

I was thinking about the valve seats, but that too.

Does lpg burn hotter then? 

Yup

Ford do/did offer the Transhit with a 2.3 four pot lpg/petrol engine as it makes their corporate emissions look good... unfortunately because the engine is made of alloy toffee, the valve seats burn out after five minutes, so I don't suspect it's a strong seller

I gather, all fords are a no no for lpg.... Just to be overly clear.

Don't know if its just Ford, and hence Jag, that have problems, or what?

Hence the Q re Mercs.

LD says with BMW its the engine management that's the problem, as the perameters are overly tight/fussy.

Very nice Mercedes Mr Opti

I know of an x5 (spit) that's duel fuel and eml is almost permanently lit due to tight fuel trim error range.

I'm sure the V8 could be made to fit the Omega, but you'd be stuck with auto
