P.S. @Max: be happy about your fuel-prices!
Yes, over here it's also much lower than a few weeks before. One hour ago I filled up Diesel for 1,23 Euro per liter.
Unfortunately I thought, when I stored my K 70 in the garage, with the thoughts, not to drive a lot in late atumn- and wintertime, "Let's fill up the tank. It will be more and more expensive". So I did in late September - for 1,64 Euro per liter 98 octane "Super plus"

At that station we talked with other LPG-drivers (by the way: LPG is cheaper in Germany than in Holland; today between 52 and 58 Cent over here, in NL over 60 Cent per liter).
That seems really cheap for Europe, almost as cheap as regular gas is here. At prices like that, you could even afford to drive really big cars with V8 engines like many do here in the US (as long as it runs on LPG that is )

That's why you often see US cars running on LPG, especially the pickup trucks.

My neighbour told me also, that, because of the hotter burning engine and the bit less power, you should avoid driving full throttle for a longer time, when you have switched to LPG, also not driving full speed. And the engine dislikes, to tow a big trailer.

That surprises me. It must be easy to convert a car to LPG then?

Rather easy, yes. My father converted several of his previous cars (Peugeot 604, Peugeot 104, '84 Honda Civic, Volvo 480, Renault 11, maybe even some others)

Yes, my dads Fairlane is on LPG-cost him $3,400. but he got a $3,000 goverment rebate for converting. It is around 60 cents a litre for LPG, and $1.50-$1.60 for unleaded
