| The government have
committed to not increasing the duty element on Autogas until
at least 2004. As the environment is at the top of the present political agenda it is viewed as unlikely that they will significantly increase it even after this time. The duty has actually been reduced for the last four budgets. See also: Tax Benefits and Environmental Benefits |

| Government incentives are available to help
pay for some conversions to vehicles that appear on their Powershift
register. This is a complicated process and we can help establish

Converted vehicles can be exempt from charges and restrictions into city centres that are proposed from 2003. It is expected that most city centres will be running similar programs by 2005. Because Autogas burns cleaner, oil change intervals are extended and engine wear is reduced on many vehicles. There is no carbon deposit build up which makes the engine run smoother and often quieter. |
