I had a gaslow bottle fitted 10 years ago and having travelled most of Europe and never having any problems filling up we have saved £££££ over the years and I would not hesitate to have them fitted again if I was a new buyer.
Just been down To Italy and no problems.
The one mistake I made was having just one fitted, I would go for two and completely cut out RIP OFF Calor

We have an Alugas cylinder and fill up at the garage at the Horse and Jockey roundabout, (not the Tesco one) with no problems so far.
The other place we have filled is at Autogas 2000, who installed the cylinder, when we are passinf near Thirsk.

Stokesley Motors have an LPG pump and I fill up there, gas first and diesel second, of course.
It is between the other fuel pumps so I don't have to move as the hoses will reach no problem.
I have never been challenged about what the gas was used for.
The filler is an outside one in the MH side skirt.
Our MH is 28 feet long and I can get in and out no bother.
In fact, I have been in with the trailer on.

If I was stopped from filling at a forecourt filling station then I would call at Autogas 2000 to fill up.

I'm wondering if there is a tax issue at the bottom of all this ? ,lpg used for fuel is taxed at a higher rate than when it's used for heating ,perhaps they fearsome sort of a tax return claim from the motorhome fraternity ??

Our local Calor depot asked if it was gas bottles I was filling(I have a Gaslow with external filler) I told him I had tanks fitted professionally by a CORGI registered installer (yes I know CORGI has been replaced by Gas safe, but he didn't). Yet the Calor depot in Liverpool actually asks if its for 'domestic use' and charges the appropriate VAT
Tuggers may have problems with the fill with gas before fuel issue, it would be interesting to hear what the clubs take on this subject.

Both my local Calor and Flogas depots have ceased selling Autogas at the domestic VAT rate of 5%, so maybe it's a local decision rather than a national one.
Countrywide Farmers sell at the 5% VAT rate.

We filled up at ASDA Hartlepool without any problem, when attending the Mackem's Rally. No one came out to check if it was a bulk tank or cylinders we were filling.

Cheers,

Jock.

We use both the A 14 Calor depot and the Norwich one (used that a few times in the summer, last time was end of August) and they were fine, you are on camera! I did have a bit of an argument there once about the VAT rate, when they stopped charging the domestic rate Pretty sure it is because they do not want the hassle of two rates and partly because of the RV's that used to use the A 14 one particularly and fill up with 'gas for cooking' ;-) Anyway, compared to exchange bottles the gas is so cheap I decided to stop asking for full receipts to 'claim the tax back' waste of paper as I never did. I would like to continue to use this system so please no stupid gadgets and unsuitable bottles! Janie
