I hope any owner doesn't need to gain access to that air tight box on the gas tank in a hurry  ::) I can understand him wanting it 'out of harms way' but he hasn't done anyone any favours has he?  ;D

Wonder what the handling is like !!

All that weight on one side, and the LPG surging back and forth under acceleration/braking.

Much prefer mine "across" the boot .. :)

Not sure that gas tank complies with regs?  In fact, some may say its downright dangerous....

With milage like that though you're not buying to drive, more to strip for parts.  Could be a nice little earner for someone  :y
