Or a scania? They can make a great sounding V8. Not that you'd care.

Guess you'd hate the idea of the Lambo Gallardo being released with a v10 diesil. VW had the idea to do so. Whooo scary Diesil! I don't want my petrol gone!
Grow up. Just because it doesn't sound right to you doesn't mean it doesn't work for others. Diesils have come along way since the clattery units of the fifties. Stop living in the past. The last one I know who tried to dis the diesil like this confessed to owning a tvr. A more polluting vehicle. A bit hipocritical.
Calm down! lol.
Diesels have their place! but the thing is a petrol engine is going to have a better power output than a diesel, assuming turbo/capacity is the same. also petrol engines are lighter, also more higher revving and having better use of power in most cases.
in a similar way, race cars in the US in particular, dragsters, indy cars, and monster trucks use ethanol, which is even more potent than petrol.
for most cars a diesel is a sensible option, especially if you intend to drive on motorways, offering economical travel, with a good power rate.
and diesels can sound good, a napier deltic diesel, an old tractor, but this is good in a different way to the sound of a rover V8, or alfa V6, Ferrari V12 etc, which is the sound of speed.
