New UKLPG Vehicle Register launched

The new UKLPG Vehicle Register  for lpg autogas vehicles was launched today with the first lpg vehicle being added to this new UK online Register. 

However the new online Register is not the only thing that is different; there is a new name and brand as well as forthcoming changes to include a new Consumer Code and Arbitration Service. These changes will be phased in over the next month.
 Who and what should consumers look out for now?
 
Only UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers will be able to place vehicles on the Register - they can be recognised by this logo:
 
  

Mike Chapman, Autogas Manager for UKLPG says, “This major initiative by the UK’s LPG industry brings together requests from the insurance companies and consumers for a simple, secure and accessible way to establish if a vehicle has been converted safely,”and went on to say, “I really believe this is a giant step forward by the industry in providing re-assurance on the quality of LPG conversions”
 
“A significant enhancement that is now available to LPG vehicle owners is the ability for UKLPG Approved Autogas Installers to not only add vehicles they have converted to the online Register but also those they have inspected and found to be safe. This is great news for consumers buying a vehicle already converted but currently without certification.
 
By the end of August consumers will be able to search for their vehicle on the online register via the home page of www.drivelpg.co.uk  website.
