This is a great use off ALL the space in the back of an 850. Quite what he has been doing with it is a mystery. Still, must have a goodly range: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1995-VOLVO-850-GOLD_W0QQitemZ120474356996QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutom obiles_UK?hash=item1c0cd4cd04&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Mine has a 50 litre tank in the spare wheel well, I get 200miles approx to a tank full.

That 850 is a single point LPG conversion, so not the best, even so, you should get 500+ out of it.

I'm paying 55p per litre, so that 200 x 0.55 =n £110

It is all very bizarre - the John Holmes of LPG tanks (if you know who he is you will understand, otherwise you don't need to know) neither use nor ornament. Maybe somebody borrowed the LPG unit from a bus-garage spares bin where he worked. I had a dodgy mate as a youngster who did resprays on the side. He worked for Shell - so long as you wanted a yellow car, it was, I gather, just fine. Flying banana owners amongst you take note!:banana:

It has 2 tanks, the 50ltr in the wheel well and that monster 100ltr one in the boot which he says can be removed :B_thumb:
