Do any cars on sale have them anymore?
Not new ones.

Only just. Ford have only recently discontinued the pushrod Ka lump.
Still in plenty of yank V8s.
Paul Giverin ( snipped-for-privacy@giverin.co.uk) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :
Is that *really* the last pushrod lump?
I'm sure it can't be.
Don't Bentley still use the 6.75 lump in the Arnage? That's pushrod, fersure. There's bound to be others, too.
They do.
Bit out of my price range I think.

Ka. Arnage. Ka. Arnage.
Fuckit. Borrow the money.
I think the Vauxhall Monaro uses the good ole Chevvy V8 which is pushrod.
Does anything new still use the Rover V8?

Steal and clone I say. :-)
Carnage?

No. Last uses (TVR?) were superceded a few years ago.
Can't you still get the Westfield SEight? Always wanted one (I know, not exactly powerful or efficient but with a noisy pipe and induction kit it sounds better than a 4 pot)
Powerful enough, surely. Anyway, like you say, just listen to it......
You can get a DAX Rush.
They list a Rover V8 - I think you might have to go for the five litre Ford (gulp) if you want a new engine, though.
Didn't someone just get the rights and tooling to keep building the buick^H^H^H^H^H Rover V8.
