A fictional company might have a car allowance scheme that says:

£10,000 a year to spend on a 4 year 80K miles lease with following stipulations:

Must be diesel
Must have engine greater than 1800cc
Must be rated as 130g CO2 or less.

Given the CO2 stipulation seems the options would be very limited on what you could have! What cars would fit within this???

According to this list you've got quite a selection, but for big miles it'd be a large Audi A6/Merc E/BMW 5 with a 2 litre engine (as boring a choice as it is, they're good for munching miles and being nice places to sit). Unfortunately my choice in that segment (the XF) is about 135g/km.
