The latest thing in some country areas of the UK that don't have piped gas
supplies is to have your car/4x4 converted to run on LPG. Then you get the
one of the local agricultual engineers to build you  an adaptor for your
domestic heating gas tank - your vehicle then runs at 7p a litre instead of
45p.
