errr.....so what are you saying? ::)

My Omega is costing me £130/week in fuel. I can't afford to eat, I've already sold two of the kids and I am planning on burgling the neighbour tonight...all donations gratefully accepted. :-[

Hope you live next door to Mickey MOOSE..... ;D ;D ;D ;D

join the army and get posted to Germany.   A full tank tax free costs me about 55 euros......
I wouldn't pass the medical. I've had heart problems and I've got a back condition. So basically, I'm a wreck.

Does anyone want to LPG my Meega for £2.98 (that's all I've got left from selling the kids).

I got the C4 Grande picasso 7 str 7 months ago, lovely comfy and excellent on fuel, diesel. Paddle gears or auto, button for handbrake etc. No problems. was warned off by lot of people but would have another. Loads of room and quick for a 1.6 diesel. had a PT cruiser prior to this 23mpg best on petrol, now average in mid 40's around town, over 50 on a run. :D :D :D
Are you getting it on mobility, no costs so no worries.
PS still have a miggy. :y :y :y

Maybe not that low but......... In an earlier thread, http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1205663030/30 I mentined how someone was breaking a 6 pot with LPG, so you might get the all bits for a reasonable price. It looks a good, known system, so should be reliable. I live nearby, so can lend a pair of hands if need be.

Personally I like the C5. I drove the 2.2 biturbo (170bhp) version the other week and it was lovely.

Damn quick, very smooth and gave 45mpg.
Had quite a few Peugoets and Citroens, and in my experience they have been excellent and very reliable.

So, in my opinion, an excellent choice
