Buying a P38 Emmissons/ LPG Help

Hot Fuzz · Apr 11, 2009

Hi all

As ever a little advice please, My brother-in-law has caught the range rover bug after a weekends offroading with me and wants a P38 as a toy

Hes found quite a nice one 4.6hse with LPG but has just failed an MOT on exhaust emmission running weak (what does this mean/ how do we fix)
and the seller had but has lost the LPG completion cert, (where, How what info needed to get a replacment)

As ever all help and comments are welcome,

What history with the car?
What year? The engine coolant problems tended to be with the earlier ones.
Is the LPG system single point or multipoint sequential (the P38 is better with the latter)
Some insurance comps want an LPGA member garage certificate, some will accept any certificate & some couldn't care less as long as you tell them.
Lots of P38s for sale so it it hasn't got 12 months MoT,good history and EVERYTHING works properly then look for another one.

Its a 96P 4.6HSE with 93000, full dealer service till 64K then full history from local garages till now, Not sure what LPG system it has as i havent seen the car,
Everything works and car looks and drives great (again i havent test driven it)

So the LPG cert is not to much of a problem bar certain insurance compants.
