Hi.
I hope it doesn't rain where you are because your shirt and tie will get wet. Thats a Land Rover.
I can't verify this but I've been told the 110's and 90's get similar fuel economy. The 200TDI's (1990-1993) are slightly more economical but the 300TDI(1994-) is more refined and quiter, plus there's more of them so parts are easier. Depending on where you are go diesel they have better fuel economy (28-32mpg) better range per tank and are not as finicky as LPG. If you're in the UK make sure the conversion is/was done by someone reputable, I've seen some ugly conversions with basic mistakes. Here in Canada LPG is widely used but is still a pain to get and the systems have to be reinspected and overhauled every 10 years. I just went through this on my other truck.
If you are in this for the long haul, see if you can find a rebuilt truck with galvanized chassis 300TDI and R380 gearbox, 90-96 is getting to that "Going to need work" stage so find one that the major stuff is done.
Defenders are like nothing else.
