just thinking about this,

ive just bought 2 clubbies, (parts and goodies)

but have been thinking of a 4efte on gas in a mini,

alot of performance turbo shops are now experimenting with lpg turbos,

especially with fuel prices the way they are going!, if you were to fit a 30ltr tank....i reckon it would be good for an easily 600ks,

waste of time?

(brad...feel free to convert yours to lpg for the sake of this thread!)
haha

blake :wink:

hehe
i'll answer this one..
thers a british racing green one..fairly decent condititon, aside from the t-bone it had..and therefore the door and RHS 1/4 panel is dead and removed, so the guys who bought it, also bought a 2nd mini to fix the first.
this 2nd one..well thers more rust than mini...its pretty shockin...but with the 2 we already have, and my bros mini, plus these next two..mayb we can make a whole mini?
or even 3 or 4?
hehe...
but yeh, watch out, we just sell the green mini shell...(with the panels to repair) i really dont think that blake or i could handle another project..just quite yet..
cheers

oh - the reason for the 30L tank...fill it up once a month...then just go n go n go!
hehe we just thought it would b funny..to see how far a 30L LPG tank would get you!
