Yep, definitely a contender. AW 2wd single turbo, leather, 18's and the bits I want is £27k and a bit. 320d M Sport well over £32k. Plus more flexibility with the hatch for bikes and stuff.

One question - the USB, how well does it integrate with iPod/iPhone? Can you control it from the vehicle controls? Track names displayed?

completely integrated with the iDrive. brings up the lot on the screen. Playlists, Genre, Albums, Artists, search. When playing it displays the Artist, Album, Track, and has a bar (like the ipod) for the duration of the track. Controllable from the steering wheel also. I had it on the M5, but it was the previous generation of iDrive .. and it worked perfectly on that one even.
