Words of a spoiled man :D
Supercharger?? Not enough power already??
I know I know, there is no such a word as enough power after some time ;)

I could do with a supercharger myself tbh.

I can see your fastidious about every bit of your car Marcin, not just the wheels. That engine bay is immaculate, a real credit to you +++

OCD there Marcin, love the engine bay, looks like a new car :cool:

Ally intakes come up a treat with alloy wheel cleaner.

Take the plastic off. Put some alloy cleaner on and agitate it then clean off with normal glass cleaner .. comes up a treat +++

My mission is to give the car a proper clean after work.
I finish at 1500 and the sun is shining.
I've got a bucket, sponge, washing up liquid and some Mr Sheen.
Bring on the cleaning.

I'll get some pics up after.


M-A8, I hope you got something on the leather seats to protect it from the poking bits and movement of the baby seat.
But I assume you have +++

Are they good on the gas?

Performance wise, I don't notice a difference at all, but then I've never had a V8 before. So far as economy is concerned, I used to average roughly 24mpg on petrol. Very little motorway mileage... come to think of it, very little motorway here :) Running on LPG, current average is 17mpg, but then I've had various other issues with the car. When I first had the conversion done, I was getting only 15mpg, but have been getting around 19mpg these last couple of weeks.

The main thing is that it costs a lot less to run, which is important to me. If it were just petrol, I couldn't afford it. The last time it was petrol only, it cost me £100.00 to fill up, which got me 75 litres and 422 miles (25mpg). My latest LPG fill cost me just £61.66 and got me 82 litres and 330 miles (18mpg).
