Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• Claimed to be Britain's first liquefied petroleum gas station, a conversion, fitting and LPG supply centre was opened on Monday at Hemel Hempstead, Herts. It is run by the Hemel Hempstead Motor Co Ltd, and provides LPG (propane) supplied by Motorgas (Smokeless Fuels) Ltd, of London.

Conversions of commercial vehicles or cars to run on LPG are made using Landi equipment originating in Holland, and both diesel and petrol engines can be converted. Hemel Hempstead Motor Co has already converted about 30 vans and cars, plus one 3-ton truck, but on the Continent over 100,000 vehicles have been converted to LPG using Landi equipment.

The UK agents for Landi are Sea Bird (Clean Air Fuel Systems) Ltd. It is claimed for Landi that this is the only company in the world which can provide LPG conversion for any type of petrol or diesel road vehicle.
