His advice? - Don't bother with a Ford-era Volvo, and don't try to LPG a turbo-charged car - you'll get valve seat recession!

Associated with our business is a very well established and expereinced LPG business, we generally get to sort out other peoples problems.
Volvos convert exceptionally well adn theres no problem with turbo engines, however the cost of swapping a kit from one high mileage car to another isnt generally viable (its almost twice the labour after all)

A reputable company will give you a straight answer as to whether its suitable for your car or not - after all they have to guarantee their work AND maintain their reputation - pick someone who has been around a while
