Nowhere near it and my track record shows I'm rather good at getting good fuel consumptions out of vehicles. Never had less than 30mpg from the 3.0TDi and never more than 38mpg. The norm for me is about 35-36mpg

so reality is that the LPG is a better option then if it was based on 145 for 1000 miles at 45mpg then 20 mpg on lpg is better in my opinion and effectively its 40mpg because its half the price, because i do not like the sound of an oil burner so that will be the better choice then i think
thanks again once again the forum pays off |

Personally, I'd stick with diesel, especially if you factor in it's stronger residuals and easier to sell on, whereas I fear you might be sat on your W12 for some time waiting for a deep-pocketed buyer |

The 3.0 Diesel sounds 'ok' but definitely dieselly... The 4.2 is pretty silent.. and whenyou take the engine cover off, you can get your star wars toys out and pretend it's the attack onthe death star....

The 4.2 will also be higher insurance premiums, but nowhere as bad as the W12
