Most cars, when they do have LPG issues, still run petrol. I'm sure it happens, but few actually leave owners stranded. And whilst it hasn't happened yet, if it did, with me up on the deal to date, I'd not cry.

I just wouldn't be too pleased. I reckon I'd live, so I still don't grasp what'd be so terrible with even the worst of examples. Now that it's a given that mine's an 'unreliable heap', the odds remain heavily stacked in my favour. With my eye on both major costs, I'm still left to run a car for a helluva lot less than most of you.
I think you only have to look at Vauxhall’s and Saab who have both released dual fuel petrol and lpg with negligible premiums.

If LPG was half price and reliable then that’s it, game over for single fuel, everyone would be out running these vehicles.

They didn’t take off and I would not have one unless I was semi retired and able to spend the time they need.
