Saving Money Makes Sense

The average cost of a litre of Petrol in Devon is £136.9p 
The average cost of a litre of Diesel in Devon is £1.43.4p 
The average cost of a litre of LPG in Devon is 72.8p ..

The distance travelled per litre of LPG is approximately 5% to 25% less than for petrol, this is dependant on three things, on the installer, and the equipment the installer is using, as well as LPG's lower volumetric energy density, but due to the much lower cost per litre, significant savings can be still achieved even compared with the latest diesels: 
  • Thousands of petrol stations throughout the UK now supply
  • LPG and converted vehicles can run on both LPG and Petrol.
  • LPG is cleaner for the environment with up to 70% less harmful emissions.
  • There is little to no reduction in power compared to petrol.
  • The cleaner burning LPG, is better for your engine.
  • Converted cars can run on LPG and Petrol - increased range between stops.
  • Improved saleability especially for large cars and 4x4s
  • Normally, there should be no change in premiums on your motor insurance policy if the conversion was completed by a UKLPG approved installer.
  • No-one can siphon your LPG tank. 

LPG Autogas Conversions are supported by the UK Government as well as the major Oil companies - BP, Shell and Calor.  Conversion charges start at just £1500 including VAT.  Our staff are Competent, Qualified, their work is regularly inspected, and approved by the UKLPG. You can check to see if an installer is competent and qualified by the new UKLPG website at www.uklpg.org.   UKLPG was created by the amalgamation of the LP Gas Association (LPGA) and the Association for Liquid Gas & Equipment Distributors (ALGED). We believe, like the UKLPG and Devon Trading Standards, that the quality of our conversions is important to you. Everyone knows you can easily make a bad conversion using the best equipment, so when people work to a budget price, speed will be the first casualty, quality the next and then finally your safety.

That's why we would suggest that you visit and inspect the work of at least two conversion companies before you place your order.

LPG / Autogas is reducing rural transporting costs


LPG is part of the solution in reducing rural transport costs.
Further to the publication of the Commission for Rural Communities report into the cost of living in the country compared to the city, the LPG autogas industry is highlighting the role LPG can play as part of the solution in reducing rural transport costs.
LPG is plentifully available in remote rural parts of Britain, where cars are often the only viable method of transport. Conventional fuel prices are considerably higher in rural areas and LPG, with its lower fuel duty, provides an affordable alternative to motorists living in rural areas.
LPG autogas can be found in rural Britain, and nationally with 160,000 vehicles served by over 1,400 refuelling sites and a national network of vehicle installers. Where filling stations are being closed, LPG /Autogas can fill the gap as it does not require the same infrastructure to supply motorists. LPG can be made available via publically accessible filling points.
The infrastructure is in place to provide LPG capacity, and consequent emission reductions, to the 20 million-plus petrol vehicles currently on our roads as well as new cars.
Robert Shuttleworth, Chief Executive, UKPLG, said:” In areas, where cars are often the only viable method of transport, LPG autogas has a key role to play for motorists who may not be able to afford to run their vehicles on petrol due to increased cost in rural parts. Thanks to the favourable fuel duty regime, LPG is considerably cheaper than petrol and diesel as well as presenting an immediate and proven solution (as part of the energy mix) to low carbon and clean air driving in the UK”.
