Thanks for the info John, greatly appreciated.

Still deciding whether its worth getting the LPG as I only do about 8,000-10,000kms a year!




unless you're getting the kit really cheap I think it's not worth it.....

that's 20 tankfulls a year.

savings are 30-40 percent.

that's 750 dollars a year saved, but interest on the 4k for the kit is 200 dollars a year.


so will take 8-9 years to pay off.........nah......

I can get the kit (used) for $650. How much would installation cost?

I dont want to lose any power though, thats my main concern.

Impco will install for $1250 you wont lose power.

You'll just save money.

Thanks John

Are you 100% certain there is absolutely no power loss?

I've done 95,000kms, would the LPG system put unnecessary strain/wear and tear on an already aging car?
I'm considering LPG as a long term solution.

Cheers

Just an update.

I had my entire car Opti-Coated today. It was not cheap at $595 (not including cost for prepping paintwork i.e. washing/claying/2 stages of machine polishing/correction).
Comes with a 5 year warranty for a used car.

Just had my yearly inspection for the OptiCoat Pro and ended up getting a layer of OptiCoat Pro+ added to it. Immediately there was a much more gloss and depth to the original application, a big improvement over the previous year's application. Its good to see the guys at OptiCoat continually improving their product. It was very cheap and easy to add the Pro+ due to the Pro layer still being in tact and untarnished!
