Years ago, there was a Wankel engined car that people converted. NSU
RO80??? Something like that. Some V4 petrol engine was an easy swap.
Will people start doing the same for diesels?

I doubt it. The RO80 engine was prone to premature and expensive death. An
engine swap makes economic sense in this kind of case, not generally
otherwise.

Plus the RO80 was an expensive car to buy.
