I couldn't open the second link but the first one says that it was converted , not factory fitted.
If I was considering spending that much on a car, It would certainly be on the list though. :D

Well acording to the conversion factor that I found on google it is 25.5 MPG The MPG on petrol is 33.1 MPG. Thyat doesn't sound very good.

(1) Distance covered:-295 miles,
(2) Litres of fuel used :- 44 litres (or cost of last refuel
(3) Cost per litre 0.62 (in pence ie: 197.9)
(4) Tick this box to store this result for your next visit then press calculate

(5)



Your fuel consumption
31.48 ( MPG) (10.79 Km per litre)( 9.26 litre per 100Km)
Averaging pence per mile 9.26
(40+ mpg for petrol is good under 23 is bad)
So 12.000 * miles would cost 1,110
*Change this figure to recalculate the example.

Until the duty goes up then it will be the same as diesel and petrol.
