There are so many points here to reply to that I can't really find the time to answer in depth.
The systems do need servicing, especially with the LPG that The Netherlands rejects but ends up being sold here. Most enthusiasts like to maintain their own vehicles in my experience. You have to choose the systems that can be self maintained or have a lot of money to throw around.
It's not really hot running, (that's pub talk from the days when LPG was run by open loop systems and ran lean), it's dry and doesn't lubricate like petrol. The cutting back in quality by manufacturers so that materials are only just good enough to do the job is a problem which is showing in a lot of engines now, regardless of fuel.
So injecting some petrol does indeed say it all, S/C engines will run on LPG quite happily but I thought it a good idea to pop a percentage of the expensive stuff in for a second or so at full chat. There's quite a lot of fuel going through that RR engine and it is a Ford after all.
As for that being the best and endorsed etc etc. Probably influenced by their accountants as were most OEM systems. Well, put it this way, their previous main agent's sales manager in the UK came to me for his own private car to be converted.
