    @@plangiQQ It varies really, The 645 is the one that seems to need most attention mainly oil leaks !! the 650 and 630 are supposedly a bit more reliable. I do most work on my 645 myself which helps with cost. I have had the following common issues over the last 4 years valve stem oil seals (90,000miles - £500 labour) IVM module - £50 part (100,000 miles) Alternator bracket gasket £5 part (120,000 miles 10hr job!) Cooolant transfer pipe at 125,000 miles £50 part 8hr job £450 labour. - Various timing chain gaskets/rocker gaskets/ vacuum pump seals/ coolant hoses etc to sort out leaks. oil service every 6000 miles roughly obviously at the mileage mine is, its kind of expected but they do need regular maintenance and inspection, that will cost you more to run than the average family car. A 630 would possibly be your best option if you don't want to be bogged down with engine maintenance/bills. The 645/650 has the nice noise! and realistically, although more powerful there isn't a lot between the 630 and 645/650 in terms of real world performance. Overall, great cars to drive and always get appreciating comments. cant bring myself to part with mine. Hope this helps a little

    Fantastic, thank you. I'm in Australia and I've been running LPG on 4 cars over the past 20 years, all 4 litre straight 6's. The current one system is awesome. LPG was historically 40% per litre the price of 91 octane petrol but for the past 5ish years it's become 60% the price of petrol per liter, roughly. LPG is 70 to 80 cents, 91 petrol $1.30 to $1.50. I'd love to see a close up, well lit shot of the tank as I'd like to own this car next. Is the tank about 75 liters of usable capacity? Thanks

    Lpg has literally halved the cost of fuel. And on a 630i it would mean you are going to enjoy even better fuel efficiency. Seat Leon's are nice but very very different cars. One is a GT cruise and another is a hot hatch. The cost of converting to LPG will be similar for a 630i and a 645ci/650i so consider insurance and if you would rather jump to a V8 as fuel will still be cheap but 1 you get a V8 and the other you get a straight 6. The 630i has a great engine and cheap to maintain. The v8 only really have 1 main issue which is valve stem seals. Get that sorted and everyones happy.
