Using data from used car expert CAP Motor Research, we benchmark two cars against each other to see how they perform over the traditional fleet cycle. This week we compare two premium diesels – the Lexus IS 220d, the marque’s first ever diesel, and BMW’s 320d, the current leader of the premium upper-medium pack.
