Regarding is it worth it .. To me Yes .. I will be keeping my C70 till the bearings wear out ! so if the LPG tax does not rise till 2014 as planned I have 4 years of cheaper motoring.

I was using £65 per week on average, sometimes alot more on petrol I now use £30, paid conversion cost back within a year ...

Highly recommend yearly servicing ... Just had mine carried out after 17,000 miles (should have been done at 12,000). It's running smoother more power and getting 220 miles on 38 litres. Cost £149 Inc vat with filters and flashlube top up.
