Sounds a bit pricy but then again it does sound like a good 'un... We paid about £1200 18 months ago for a 1994 M, 130k miles and similar condition (although did need a new radiator).
The LPG conversion probably took about 4 days in total (in our case spread over about 6 months!!!) The kit cost about £900, but we took it to a LPGA approved installer for safety checking - that's when the fun started. They had it for about 2 weeks, there were a couple of leaks so they had to replace a few olives and they had problems getting it to run well on LPG (which they blamed on the kit - I reckon it was more that they were unfamiliar with the kit as they didn't supply it). Having said all that I am still in favour of LPG as it runs well, slight loss of power but not much to worry about. Do you have good LPG availability where you live? Might sound an obvious question but we only have a 150-200 mile range with 2 36 litre tanks (usable capacity about 50 litres).
