Yep, its very good. I am quite happy with my 2.0d. I also test drove the 2.3d and enjoyed the wee bit of extra power but felt it did not quite go as well with the auto box. Difficult to explain but it seemed to hunt more for the right gear and did not feel quite as "settled" as the 2.0d.

Now if only BMW would drop a 3.0d in that engine bay together with the 8-speed....I would be seriously tempted to trade up
