As far as I could tell there wasn't anything "special" about it - just an ordinary 230F with LH2.4 ignition, converted a long time ago to LPG in Holland.
The LPG was temperamental, and the engine developed a knock, not unconnected I suspected.

I think it was just a tax dodge to do with VAT exemption for exports.
