Are there any CNG filling station left in the UK, I only know of one (in Crewe) and there are rumours of Charnwood truck Serives in Nottingham doing filling, and something in Lincoln ( I think), but where else is ther CNG in the UK.

I heard ther was one in London's Regents' Park

Please do not confuse with LPG, or the Chive LNG (Lorries only) network, or come to that, fill this psot with, "What is CNG anyway?" Q's.

Please CNG, not LPG.

To answer my own question, just heard, there is filling in Wincanton, but I've never used it. Public access:
EcoTransit's filling station in Wincanton, Somerset, open by appointment.

They run Biomethane, the greener CNG.

See:

http://www.lpgforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=4974

but as of today, the telephone numbers on the site are not answered. So sounds omininous.

So, thus far, I make that three wasy to find CNG / Biomethane / NGV filling in the UK with public access. There are other sites rumoured to be 15 in total, run by DHL, Coca-Cola corporates, and a few left-leaning counncils. VW & Mercedes did have them in Milton Keynes for demo of their CNG vans. (VW Caddy & Merc Sprinter)
You'll not get to fill at those easily. I also understand Gasrec have plans to build a CNG / Biomethane filling site near the M1 in Northants, but that might wind up being LNG, like the Chive network, which is no good for non HGV.

If you have Homefill, I for one would offer anyone use of my filling, I have soem storage, on a recipricating arrangement of course - especiially if you're outside the range of my tanks. I'm in Bucks
