Possibly daft question.....
Hi
I am considering whether to buy an E39 540 or 530?? I have owned 740's before, and love the roar from the big V8, and the great performance. However, I may need to travel a little more, and therefore may need the economy of the 530..... Has anyone ever had done, or any experience of having a 540 / 740 fitted with LPG? I would be pleased to hear if anyone in the UK has had this done, and what sort of issues they have run into. Cheers Paul |

You might google this newsgroup; seems like I've seen some postings on LPG over the last year... You might also consider a 530d - although I (living in the US) haven't driven one, the UK boys think it's as good as the gas/petrol engine, with the torque of the V8. Floyd |

The only thing holding me back is that I don't do enough mileage these days to justify the initial outlay. -- Regards Steve G |
