Once converted, your vehicle will run on autogas, which is typically 46% (or less) of the petrol price. Some cars will also save a small amount on Vehicle Excise duty and parking (subject to individual borough). Vehicles fitted with a Battersea Autogas LPG conversion will experience less mechanical wear and command a higher resale value, if subsequently sold.

IT’s GREENER_  Driving your car or van on LPG autogas reduces your carbon footprint and your contribution to global warming. Extensive independent tests demonstrated that running on LPG autogas resulted in a 14% reduction in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions when compared to the equivalent petrol vehicle and a 10% advantage over the equivalent diesel.
IT’s CLEANER_ LPG autogas is regarded as a cleaner fuel because its simple chemical composition means it is a very clean burning. This is important for the quality of the air you breathe which directly affects your health. Particulates accumulate in your lungs and LPG engines were shown to have around 99% less per mile of these polluting emissions than diesels. Additionally one diesel vehicle emits the same amount of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) as 20 LPG autogas vehicles.

Just like petrol, autogas vapour can ignite, but unlike petrol autogas is stored in a vehicle in a strong steel tank and has a nuber of safety valves. Independent tests by the TNO in Holland concluded that LPG vehicles were safer in an accident than petrol. In fire service tests in the UK it was demonstrated that in the event of a serious fire occupants in a vehicle have three times longer to evacuate with LPG than petrol.

The LPG tank can be fitted in the spare wheel well or in some case below the vehicle so you do not lose any boot space. If space is not a problem, as for van or large vehicles, the tank can also be fitted in the boot, where it can be of wery large size.

The easiest option is to swap your tyres for the very latest run-flat tyres, or have a couple of anti-puncture spray cans always in the car in sale in any petrol station or Halford.

Every vehicle converted by us, will carry a 2 years warranty period, covering lpg components and labour.

It should perform a little better. Most people notice a smoother, quieter ride. Nevertheless, there is an unnoticeable slight reduction of power if you are a racing driver (-5%).

The conversion/installation will make your vehicle bi-fuel, so it can normally run on Autogas LPG and if selected, back to the original Petrol fuel. The new gas system requires its on tank which normally is installed in the spare wheel well to save boot space. Tanks are available in different sizes so loss of boot space can be kept to a minimum. The Autogas fuel is purchased by the litre at the standard petrol stations and is pumped into the vehicle tank via a hose.

Yes, a dedicate miniature swith is installed on the dashboard to permit manual overriding of LPG to petrol or viceversa.

The LPG system will turn automatically the petrol on, so its very important to have alway a minimum of ⅓ of a tank filled with petrol.

Of course, .............. but that won’t save you money !!!!!

You must remember to always have some anti-puncture spray cans in the car or have your tyres pre-treated with a special anti-puncture paste.

At a standard petrol station. Now days, almost half of the exihisting stations sales LPG, and the number is increasing.

It is not reccomended, and also the installation is much dearer, we awknoledge that only trucks are really benefit from it doing 50,000 miles per year or more.
