 You should use r 12 replacement gas, there are serveral types available 
and are more exspensive the R134A but not much ,the difference in the r12 
replacements is some have dyes in so you can trace any leaks but the all do the 
same job , i wouldn't advise using r12, some say r12 its legal ,but if your 
caught releasing r12 (r12 is a cfc) its a£20000 fine max so i would call that 
illegal lol to retro fit a r134A system is expensive because most of the 
components have to be change as the molicules of r134a are much smaller andwill 
seep out of rubber pipes and seal design for R12 but if you need to regas every 
year thats a good sign you need new seals anyway, best thing is take it to a 
specialist in aircon not some monkey down your local garage they will advise you 
better than 1000"s opinions on the internet, 
many thanks John....
