Many thanks for this very useful post. I made an appointment earlier today with a dealer to go along this afternoon to look at a phase1 V70 classic 170bhp fitted with lpg, non-factory after market system, pristine, full service history and very low mileage, they have all the paperwork present and say that it runs perfectly on lpg
However, I am wary, this is a two grand car (a bit different to the 240 converted to gas I almost bought last week for £700, would have bought it if the huge tank hadn't been mounted in the estate)
Having read of the 'unacceptable injector life' and seen the high costs of repairs to these systems, I'm going to give this beautiful car a miss and continue to look for a phase 1 diesel
