    The missus wants a gas cooker but we're not on mains gas. I know there's a lot of faffing with having to have two bottles etc which I can deal with but before I commit to the idea just wondered if there are any expensive modifications required to a cooker designed for mains gas to work off bottled gas?

    No expensive modifications
    You can order your cooker for bottled gas or just get a conversion kit.
    Cost of fitting cooker and conversion kit would be in the region of €100 depending on setup

    It wont need a "two bottles etc ", a simple single butane bottle will do.

    A caution if your looking at second hand NG cookers, some can require a change of thermostat and FFD to convert to bottle.

    I would never have a secondhand gas cooker in my home, they're only as good as the person who fixed them, they often leak gas and there is a bigger risk of the odd KABANG with LPG.
