No, Belgium (Europe).

Don't know which details you expect:
- separate injectors for the LPG (that's why it's called LPi);
- 65 liter donut-tank in the the spare wheel-compartment, which can be filled with about 52 liters of LPG-fuel;
- button on the dash for manually switching between petrol-LPG.

Because the LPG is directly injected into the engine, there is no loss of fuel or power (well, some minimal loss, I can hardly feel it) and it has no real influence on the engine itself. The engine always start on petrol, and when the engine is warmed up, it is automatically switched to LPG.

The installation was an investement of €2400. LPG costs about €0,33 per liter here, petrol is about €1,1 per liter. On normal petrol, my 960 uses about 11 or 12 liters every 100 kilometers. On LPG, it's about 12 or 13 l/km. The driving experience is about the same, but the ride is somewhat smoother on LPG.

Uturn. 1992 965 LPi 285.000km.
