That is a shame. I cant remember where I got those figures from now but £15 is a silly amount. Not that I will ever need it but will you benefit from congestion charge exemption?

Congestion charge exemption is being fazed out I believe. As far as I know they are not accepting any more applications and cars that are registered will be exempt for the next 12 months but after that it's back to normal

The only thing putting me off is the initial cost and the boot size I'd lose.

Hi just seen your post on your gas converted 2005 Wrx. I have a 2005 sti and I'm thinking of converting it as I can't afford to drive it very often on petrol. Would your recommend it or not. Thanks

First at all sorry about my english.


I have a impreza 2.5 wrx.

My first conversion (with prins system) doesn't go well.

However, at 700000km a go I have changed to BRC at FrontFuels (Portugal). The car is excelent.

My advices are:
- Install a electronic system to lubrificate the valves. (each cylinder individualy)
- Program the lpg ecu to change to gas at 4500rpm. To prevent damages.
