I had an extra fuel tank custom made for me to sit in the spare wheel well of my VW golf. Replaced the full size spare with a space saver which sat over the top of the tank with the filler through the middle of the space saver. It was quite an unusual design but these guys made me a baffled tank to my design out of aluminuim for £95.

Apparently, Wide Land cruisers came with an option of 90 Litre sill tanks... Scouring the EPC for details of those. Although 90L seems a little steep... you could get all the bits to match it in...

Now that would be cool... except when it came to fill it all up. 6months later... you'd have forgotten how to do it...

For mine it would cost about £1400 + vat (installed)
but my mate owns the company so I did some of the work myself and cut the costs down. To it an injection system to mine we had to take all the inlet manifold off to get to the injectors!!NO WORRIES!
