I opted for a 320i instead of a 320d and first time in a petrol car in nearly 10 years. The B48 is beautifully smooth and quiet, and I can easily average 45 mpg without much care on a motorway run. Now given the fact the 20d was £50 a month more expensive, and diesel is 5p more per litre, I'm never going to recoup that doing 10k miles a year.

I agree with Beemer5to3, my last 4 cars have been Jag diesels but changed to 330i Dec 19. I got 47.2mpg on a 277 mile round trip mainly in eco pro mode, but easily get 40mpg + on the motorway in any setting.
Switch to Sport Plus on the twisty's and MPG takes a tumble but the fun factor more than makes up for it
