Looks like a resonably priced disco for what it is, but not worth an LPG conversion. Would probably cost double what you pay for the wagon. You'd never make back the conversion costs in fuel savings, especially on a car thats done 260,000 ks.

How about you put up a little bit more about the vehicle you are looking for? i.e. number of seats preferred etc

That way people can keep an eye out :wink:
