3 Series Diesel is too small for me.
5 Series Diesel? I might consider it.

imo Diesel driving is just a different
experience. You can feel the torque,
the low RPM on the highway. It's hard
to explain but my Peugoet 504 seemed
to have a love affair with the road.
Once it really got going it was like there
was no stopping it.

Of course the fact that it had a 40 gallon
fuel tank capacity and about 1500 mile cruising
range helped a lot.

I must confess though I
haven't driven the new Diesel cars
for any length of time but if I had
somewhere to put it, A Ford F250 4WD
diesel would be one of my toys.

I have driven those and I got the same
feeling. Effortless torque and a feeling
of brute power waiting to be pushed to
the limit.
