Default Tempted to trade jeeps...

I'm looking to swap my jeep for one with an LPG conversion (trust me, it makes a lot of sense in the UK). This one looks good to me, but what's going on with that exhaust??

If anyone has an opinion on this Jeep I'd love to hear it...
Thanks!

Liquid Petroleum Gas... Propane mainly - sometimes with some Butane mixed in. It's about half the price of Petrol and gives 90% of the mileage. It's widely available (enough) over here to make it worthwhile.

What kind of mileage do you get with LPG conversion?

You can't do a propane conversion?

I could, but it costs and I'd rather do it with a Jeep that isn't rusty like mine so I can get some use out of it. A converted, non rusty Jeep seems like the ideal solution.

I say trade it then if the one you're trading for is in better condition.
