My petrol GU 4.5ltr auto on 285/75/16 runs 360-400km on 85-88 ltrs of LPG.

It costs me far less to drive the GU on gas than it does the 100 series Turbo Diesel i know own.

I do happen to have a GU petrol/LPG auto for sale. Bar, lights, snorkel, extractors, exhaust, steps, bling alloys, 7 seat. PM for more info. ;)

i get around 17 on the highway and about 20 around town
thats with 35s, but im geared to suit the tyres


i just did 440k with a car trailer and zook (empty trailer up and zook on the way back) and i used 98litres.
i was sitting on 120 on the way up and almost forgot about the trailer being there.
and on the way back i was doing 100-120 without any probs.


what else do you want to know?
