It depends on where you get it done.There are some good and some not so good people doing lpg conversions in Poland........I had my Rangerover done in UK and it cost me 1300 quid , its about half that in Poland.....Your best bet is to ask people local to where you live and go to a garage that has a reputation for doing a good job....You can get problems if the job is not done by experts.....I have not had any problems with my conversion in three years and saved a fortune on fuel.....If you are buying a car in Poland , get one that has already been converted and is running ok...The price for conversion depends on if it has carbs or fuel injection , Good luck...

Price can vary depending on your vehicle and the best suitable system.
For example a multi-point system will be more expensive than the more common single-point system.
Also of course, the type of tank you specify will affect the price. Do you want to replace your existing tank with a split tank or fit a new tank in the spare wheel well just for the LPG ??
As with any garage, there are good and bad, so local knowledge will be invaluable. LPG is quite common in Poland so supply and getting a reputable firm to do the install shouldn't be a problem.

I'm leaving my installtion until I get to Poland as my English wife who is already living there has already sourced a garage that will do the work on my 3.5 litre V6 Pajero for around the equivelant of £500 - this is for a milt-point injection system with an inboard 'cylinder' type 75 litre tank so I can keep the original petrol tank for use when we return to visit family/friends in the UK.

wiggy:
find out more about garages that do the conversions

You may need some extra research before making this decission, because a few months ago there was a big fuss about a new tax on gas (LPG), which would put it's price too close to thepetrol prices.
Owners of garages doing conversions were complaining that they were losing clients very fast, because after some basic calculations the new prices made the conversion a bad deal, you wouldn't be able to earn much on the petrol/LPG price difference, so the costs of conversion would make the whole thing not worth it.
But I'm not sure if that new tax has been really introduced (or is going to be soon), or maybe not. Besides petrol prices are also increasing, so maybe it's still worth to use LPG even with the new tax?
