    There is LPG on some gas stations but it takes a while to fill up the car, and you can't drive it for so long before you have to fill it up again so it haven't becoma a very big hit yet. But with a gas price of $8 a gallon there sure is a need for a better option than oil.

      There is a ordinary gas tank in the car too.

          have you checked behind the bumper yet? It could of been something that was added at one time then removed leaving only the fill valve. so there wouldnt be a hole in the bumper.. Doesnt make sence but there has to be a story behind it.

            When looking under the car I don't see anything strange and I wasn't able to get the camera in behind the bumper. I don't have time to check it out more careful right now because I have to travel in work, but I will put it on a lift and report back about what I find in a week or two when I'm back home.

              Someone might have changed the rear bumper and got one from a LPG car.

                  liquid propane gas, like what you use on the grill. A lot of smaller fork trucks use it here in the States.

                      I finally put the car on a lift today but unfortunaly I didn't find anything that could be a part of an LPG installation.

                      On the other hand, I talked to a former owner of the car. Not the one I bought it from but the guy that had it before him and he told me that he have heard that the car was LPG modified but he never used it. This beats me, I don't know what they have done to it but it doesn't look like there's anything left anyway.

                      If it's cheap, well it's cheaper than gas but on the other hand the car will use more LPG so in the end I don't think it will make a big difference in the wallet.

                            Hmm... Delorean was largely responsible for the success of Pontiac as a performance brand... then goes on to build the DMC-12 on an island in the middle of the ocean before being set up by a government frame job/coverup... hmm... ironranger, I think you are on to something!
