Gas on the roof

I may be asking this question a bit late in the day as Ive just made & fitted a bracket for the roof rack for the camping gas cylinder...does anyone know of the legals of gas transportation? I just hate having it in the car when on trips, its awkward to store & secure & puts me off smokin in the motor!

cant see why not, but never seen it before

Someting like this?

thats near enough spot on, although thats far too many nippers!

Ideal target for me if ya towin a pikey box....

Hannibal make a gas cannister holder for their roof racks, but don't appear to market it in the UK, so I'm guessing it may not be legal.

mmmm Nene used to sell them but not anymore.
Surely then if its illegal, you need a compressed sticker on ya door?

You certainly would for commercial use, think you probably wouldn't for leisure use, otherwise the pikey wagon would all have em.

I aint Drewster ffs.

You is a fine one to talk. At least my landy can be driven without having a back-up team of 20 other landys to make sure it arrives at it's destination ok.




































































And that's just to get it from one end of the drive to the other.










































public highways require months of planning.:doh:

Whaaaaaat? I think his 110 looks fookin mint!

Incidentally, my LPG-powered 110 has a 'compressed gas on board' sticker on the back amongst all the other bumper stickers. I thought it had been put on there for a laugh, but maybe he used to tow a caravan with it as well, and had some CNG in the back too.

...oh dear another inbredtaffwannabe ...

Not saying yes or no but have seen a lot of people putting 907s in there roof box maybe a good place to ask is ukcampsite.co.uk

I remember the buses round here having a bag on the roof with gas in it for propulsion, wasn't that long ago either.

They are 265/75/16 Insa Turbo Special Tracks. The front is HD suspension cos of the winch but no it's not lifted. I've just added some rear helper springs cos when it was fully laden (which is most of the time) it would hit the bump stops when offroading. It now sits about 35mm higher on the back end than when that piccy was taken and doesn't hit the bump stops. The suspension is just as soft though.

Make a bracket to store them under the sills on yer disco, bit like LPG tanks.
