Been knocking around for a while now (even been interviewed on BBC) but it is not live (yet?). I think it was mosltly an exercise to see if it could be viable if 100's of thousands of folk signed up, but quite a few outside experts reckon that they might actualy only be able to shave 2-3p off a ltr if it goes ahead. Their heart is in the right place I suppose. Best off with an LPG conversion if you want super cheap fuel. Baz will know doubt be along in a min to pour scorn and gloating over us all...

\I don't know about you but, I've often wondered how much cheaper it would be to run a LPG Scorpio as compared to a petrol Scorpio.
Do you think anyone has that information ?
