Mr. Winder can't tell the difference between his car before and after the conversion and kindly sent us pictures of himself showing off his LPG Mercedes.  Mr. Winder also owns his own company, Winders Carpets Ltd. maybe the company van will be next on his LPG hit list!

Is this your first LPG conversion?
Yeah

Did you have any initial concerns about converting?
No, I was told that my car - the older Mercs - are well suited for an LPG conversion.

How did you find the whole conversion process with Fuelture?
You seemed to know what you were talking about; very nice and totally professional in speaking to me and going through the details of the LPG conversion.

How easy has it been to run your LPG car?
Can't tell the difference really. 

Has refuelling been an issue?
Well, there's Morrison's - most of their stores have LPG.

How has your car been running since the LPG conversion, any problems?
Seems to be ok. 

Is there anything that you would change about your conversion?
They put the tank where the tire is, so there is slightly less boot space but that's only an issue when I go on holiday with the suitcases and I usually get a taxi to the airport anyway.

What was the key factor about LPG that made you convert?
The key factor... the price of LPG I suppose.  It'll take about 2 years (based on mileage) to make back but I'll be keeping this car for at least another couple of years.

Why did you choose Fuelture to convert your car to LPG?
I went on the internet, and you came up.  I had a cheaper price locally but after speaking with Ray (our engineer) and he showed me a big American camper van that he was converting - I suppose he convinced me.

Go for it right now, and don't hang around until the cows come home!!
