paul,
it may be a little too far to travel but discovery developments in spalding, lincs did the conversion on the V8 disco i bought with a long-range tartarini sequential system (£3.5K). i gather they they wrote the book on LPG conversions and it's a faultless job: 120 litres in 3 tanks (and a 20 litre unleaded tank for starting) gives c.360 miles per fill up. it's still ollie reed on a bad day in a maltese bar but at 38p/litre, zero hydrocarbons, one third the CO2 emissions of a petrol V8 and one three thousandth the particulates of a diesel, who cares?
sure beats my old H6 outback - 65 litres at 95p/litre for a piffling 230 miles per tank. on a good day ...
again, it's a bit of a trek but try Merelander 4WD Centre | 01379 652000 in diss, norfolk (richard gardiner). well regarded, they mainly convert and sell 4x4s but a car's a car and an engine's an engine, even if it's a limo.
go on, have a day out in the sticks ...
whichever you go for, make sure they fit a tartarini system at minimum: bulletproof, high quality, neat, quiet and smooth. is the limo a V6 or V8?
good luck.
HG.
