An LPG 15 kW heater from Screwfix is £100. 13kg Propane is about £35 (once you've got the bottle). Propane is 14kWh per kg, so standard 13kg bottle gives 182 kWh, which gives around 19p / kWh of controllable heat which doesn't smell.
Alterntively, install an air source heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 3.5:1, so an investment of a mere £8k or so provides you heat at "only" 9.8p/kWh!
On reflection John, a few rags soaked with E10 in a bucket in the corner is clearly the way to go if you're wanting to limit your capital investment!
