I'm not religious, but this sort of crap almost has me on my knees praying to whichever god available to intervene. :cry:

I dislike diesels for the noise, the narrow powerband and the fact that it's completely useless from a performance point of view. A petrol engine with a similar displacement is always faster. It takes the fun out of driving in a bread and butter car, so why on earth would you want one in car specifically designed for the thrill of driving? What business does a diesel engine have in a sportscar then? That one of my favourite marques is contemplating such an agricultural power unit for one of its supercars is simply beyond belief for me.... :cry:
