Absolutely - height restricted carparks are a definite no-no for
the drivers of such equipped Beasties. You only reverse once
down the ramp from a drop off at Manchester Airport to know
never to attempt such foolishness again.
Nice motor Matt, have you got any under bonnet and in cab photos
and how do you plan to approach the LPG? You can get a 50 litre
tank under the rear floor without compromising on load space,
and if you sacrifice one of the underseat tanks you'll get
something like a 35 litre one in its place as well.

i nearly lost my coffee reading that !! :-P
i don't have any other pics at the moment but i will this
weekend :-) (weather permitting lol)
as regards the LPG it going to fit a tank inside i looked at all
the options for the tank going under and going where one of the
petrol tanks are but im wanting to user her for some long trips
up to scotland and the shetlands etc so i went for a 100L tank
and keeping the 2 main fuel tanks should give me a good range
even with the V8 hoping to make a start fitting it all this
weekend but the plan is to locate the tank just behind the
drivers seats tucked up to the roll cage and to almost sink it
in to the back body. hard to in describe but i know what i mean
lol, i will get some pics taken when i do the job to show you
all :-)
