LPG Wales is owned by two partners - Pawel (or Paul as he's known) and Greg, two highly experienced Polish mechanics who have over 30 years of combined experience in LPG conversion and general motor trade.
After years of working for other companies they realised that there was still a lot of room for improvement in quality of service when it comes to LPG Conversion and they took that task upon themselves - they have set up LPG Wales and never looked back.
The person responsible for LPG Conversion is Greg Majeranek. It's hard to find him in the office - he's always around, under or in the car...
" Since I can remember it was always cars for me - says Greg - I went to college to study Car Mechanics and Maintenance and it was just a matter of time I got interested in LPG. Poland is a third biggest market for LPG Conversion in the world - everything runs on LPG in Poland.
When I left college I worked for few companies but I have learned the most at Car Gaz - www.autogaz.siewierz.pl and KKL - www.kkl.pl (content in Polish). This is where I was approached by Andy from Profess Autogas who offered me a senior position in his company. It was a big step for me and my whole family but we have quickly settled in.
I worked at Profess Autogas for over three years, I was responsible for vehicle diagnostics and tuning and training of new staff and I was over seeing the entire LPG installation process. I had finally a chance to work on some of the best cars (and some not so good...).
It was exciting time for me but I still saw room for improvement and when I've met Pawel we both realised we had the same idea and we decided to go ahead with it - welcome to LPG Wales! I have over 15 years of experience, I have been trained by AC Stag and Romano and I am responsible for every LPG Conversion that leaves LPG Wales - your car is in good hands."
Pawel Dabski is the one you meet first - he's always on the phone, replying to emails, answering more phone calls... he enjoys talking to customers and when you call he'll make sure your decision whether to go ahead with LPG Conversion or not is well informed. With strong background in motor industry he's the 2nd generation of highly trained car mechanics in the family.
Just like Greg he went to study Car Mechanics and Maintenance but the carried on with Marketing and Finance specialising in motor industry related services. After working for years for lease company he decided it was time to implement all the ideas he had into his own business.
" It all started when I had my car converted to LPG years ago - I was fascinated and intrigued that the service wasn't as popular as it deserved to be.
I couldn't believe some bad reputation LPG was receiving but I have soon realised that it was all down to quality and honesty that garage can offer its customer. Some people are surprised when I tell them that it makes no sense to convert their car.
The way I see it is I'd rather tell them as it is and then have a friend rather than customer who didn't save money in the end. How is it possible? Well, you do save a lot of money on fuel but if you drive let's say 2k miles per year, your car does already 35mpg and you know you want to sell it in next 6 months you'll end up loosing money! I tell people as it is, I ask them not only about the car they drive but about everything else - how they drive it, how many miles do they drive and how long they want to keep the car for.
I'm trying to make sure that LPG Conversion becomes long term investment - once you convert your car to LPG you'll want to keep it forever!"
