I commute about 600-700 kms per month. LPG kit costs about 25K in the city I live. I am aiming for high end models of Indica Xeta (GLX) or Turbo (DLX) and the cost difference is about 75K.. So, Turbo Diesel costs me 50K more than Xeta+LPG..
Which one should I puchase? Expert thoughts?

Xeta GLS model is available at 3,17,000 on road in hyderabad.Add 25000 for the LPG kit it comes to 3.42 lak on road.Indica turbo GLG with intercooler is 4.4laks on road and Turbo DLS is 4.23 lak on road.The difference is 1 lak and 73000 respectively.My friends Turbo GLG with the intercooler is giving 13 KMPL with A/c in city.Assuming LPG will give 10 Kpl in same conditions Running cost is 2.85 for LPG and 2.8for diesel,so why pay a lakh more and get a noisy rough engine in the turbo.With a round tank fitted in the stepeny boot space is also not compromised that much ,and since Indica has split rear seats the luggage space is suitable for 90% of our commute.
