I think the match up against a 3.0d E53 would be a lot closer than the figures would suggest as low down torque of the D would really pull it along, but once into the higher revs as mentioned above, the V8 would gain a lot more momentum.
40d is no comparison really as of course it will win.

If we use your D for the match up I'll win by just removing the pillow you use to see over the steering wheel...
