LPG against the other Land Rover Range Rover versions

Why the fuel type changes the number

Converted LPG cars are tested on the same emissions basis as petrol, with the conversion itself checked for security and leaks.

On the Land Rover Range Rover specifically, hybrid is the strongest at 90.6%, and this lpg version sits 3 points below the 80.7% model average.

What it means if you are buying one

The lpg Land Rover Range Rover fails more often than the model average, so budget for the items that catch this fuel type and treat a fresh MOT as worth paying for. Buying a damaged one? run it through the analyzer, check the exact car, decode the VIN and check the mileage before you bid.

Mileage is part of the answer

The average lpg Land Rover Range Rover had covered 149,430 miles at test, against 100,030 for the diesel and 104,230 for the petrol and 44,545 for the hybrid. That is very high mileage. Clutches, dual-mass flywheels and head gaskets have usually been through at least one repair by this point, so ask for evidence rather than assume the car is original everywhere.

Fuel type and mileage are tangled together: diesels are usually bought by higher-mileage drivers, so some of any gap between fuels is the miles rather than the engine. The per-year figures on the Land Rover Range Rover page separate age from fuel if you want to isolate one.
