Just wanted to say hello, im a new member living in hampshire. I have had my largo highway star for about 3 years now and it has been great. I am looking for a 2wd diesel if any one is selling one locally as my 4wd is getting to uneconomical.

hi, welcome, iv got a 2wd diesel but if I had the choice again I would choose a petrol and look into getting lpg conversion, I don't think there is much diferance from petrol to diesel on econamy, and from reading on here petrol engine is very reliable,

Hi welcome to the forums.
If you want to keep your current bus just remove the front prop shaft and your bus will be 2wd

There's quite a few people who have done this and they do increase mpg. But most miss the 4wd feel when they switch to 2wd.

I noticed a 2mpg loss when i fitted 225 tyres. I went from 205's so the more rubber on the road, the more friction and the more fuel you use.
