And there you come as the ideal son-in-law with your fuel-devouring American, equipped with the thickest V8 engine available, making the most beautiful sound in the world from the two exhaust pipes, spreading a sweet air at the sun-drenched house for driving.
You will have noticed, different bystanders are pinching their noses, looking at you with a look of there-you-got-there-again-like-one. A few people draw your attention to your environmental responsibilities, before turning your back on his (fully funded) Toyota Prius. Your American mastodon runs on gas. On LPG. However, do not let yourself be brought to the boil. The Ministry of Housing, Spatial Planning and the Environment (VROM) still had some (tax) money left and instructed TNO to find out whether LPG is really that clean. The result will not surprise you, car gas affects the environment and human health less than gasoline or diesel. LPG takes fossil fuels to the crown in terms of CO2, NO2 and NOx emissions. The comparison study was based on petrol cars with a regulated three-way catalytic converter and Diesels with a soot filter. With classics, the differences may be even greater.
