LPG conversion
 
Would you buy a convertible crossfire that's had a gas conversion?

personally i would`nt buy any gas converted crossfire, in a roadster the boot is tiny as it is, with a tank....:(...fuel consumption on a crossfire is quite reasonable for the kind of car it is, cant see the point in getting a sports car and worrying about fuel consumption...try running my F150 with a 5.4 V8.....thats fuel consumption...chris

What xfchris said.
Some cars are well-suited to LPG, some not.
Putting LPG on my PT was one of the best decisions I've ever made with a car - but no way would I do it to the Crossfire
- there's not even a spare wheel well for the tank.
I know a few have been done but IMO it's inappropriate and impractical enough on a coupe, let alone a 'vert... ;)

Wow, do you have to sell a child every time you want to fill that F150 up over there?:p

Hi
They did arrest the person but because the car was torched the same day there wasn't enough evidence to charge him so they let him go. I am on the mend but may need another operation. I have replaced my PT Cruiser convertible but not my Crossfire yet; there is one being advertised in Leamington but it's had a conversion, hence the question but I will stay away from it.
Thanks for all of your replies.

I shouldn't talk I just bought an AWD Durango, with a 6 I get around 23-24 highway. Still working for a couple more years though.

Think I might of bought the Crossfire you were looking at.
I recently bought a Grey one with LPG, runs great. As this is my everyday car and near me is the cheapest LPG at 40p per litre it was a good choice.
