That's actually the bit of the website that's missing.
When I mentioned network AND storage problems, I meant on-board storage: If you llok at a fuel tank blow-moulded to fit above IRS and a diff, a pressurised tank that shape WILL be a nightmare.

yup!
Like I say, tricky for the S2000, but makes a lot more sense for a mechano car like the land rover, or possibly even for a kit car...
No but seriously, simply bolting in a cylindrical tank in lieu of a square petrol tank is no great shakes, likewise cutting a hole and popping in an LP filler. If you genuinely can get that kind of gains by simply fitting LPG, then why not...?
...well, a kit, for self installation is going to cost you ivo

Indeed.
Honda had a joint venture in US with a device called 'Phill' which allowed you to compress your own natural gas for your Civic in the comfort of your own garage. So bollocks to the lack of a network.
It's still never really caught on though - US gas is still was too cheap.
