    Arrow Another LPG Conversion Question

    Hi all,

    I am currently looking at getting a VY 03 berlina with 180,000kms on the clock...

    I will definitely need her on gas.

    Is it ok to get the car converted with this high mileage?

    PS it is 180,000 country K's

    cheers

    Aren't they around the $4000 mark roughly? The government rebate has been cut in half now. You will only get about $1000 back now.

    That's down here in Vic, don't the same rebate rules cover Australia state wide? The original full rebate total dropped dramatically about a month ago now.

    It's a Federal Government initiative and I got my $2k 3 weeks ago in SA. As far as I know, it's still all good to go.

    just check with the gas place first. and i've heard that you shouldn't go with anything other than impco. i can't vouch for this though!
