Cng is being used buy the supermarkets to power there fleets, so it makes them look "green"
 Asda's new dc in Avon mouth  has a cng plant.
 wont be available to the general populas as mr tax man wont like losing out on revenue when people start buying cng plant from the usa and cuttting them out.

Thinking about it there's a CNG fuelling tank at Aust services on the M48, I've never seen it used though.  :-\

The tanks for CNG are considerably thicker and stronger so need a bigger tank for same range.

Oh, and most of the "LPG Explosions while filling" that people bring out are actually some retard pumping CNG into an LPG tank ;)
