Irmscher offers sporty after-market LPG conversion for the Opel Antara
LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) is the fuel of choice for lots of European drivers who want to save money at the pump. It's much cheaper than gasoline or diesel and it's also promoted through tax incentives, since it burns cleaner than either of the two most common liquid fuels (gasoline and diesel). Nevertheless, LPG conversions tend to happen to the least powerful powertrains available for a given model, so LPG vehicles don't usually have excellent performance figures.
German retrofitter Irmscher decided that a LPG conversion shouldn't make a car boring. Style and cleaner emissions can work together. So, besides the standard LPG conversion that Irmscher offers for the 2.4-liter gasoline version of the Opel Antara CUV – priced at €2,695 – purchasers can now get new wheel rims, a roof spoiler and side skirts to make the LPG Antara more attractive. To certain eyes.

I don't understand this. Since years i asked car compagnies or parts resellers to offer me a natural gas conversion kit for my neon 2005 5 speeds ??? What they did ?? they did nothing of the sort and they even didn't responded to me. Since then i burned 200 gallon of gasoline causing big pollution and fuel cost at the petrol extracting site, at the refinery and on the roads, water(rain) soil and everything have been polluted because of the innepcy of chrsler particularly and to a certain degree by autobloggreen bloggers that don't constitute a reconized and coherent group of greeneries promoters because of the paid big-oil bloggers and the deeply depressed of everything general bloggers that see downzizing a way to exist more as a driver and owner of a car, LOL.

LPG is not natural gas. And I bet you could get a LPG conversion for your Neon.
Here: found one for you.
