A 320d xDrive book MPG values are only marginally higher than a RWD 330d but in the real world you are more likely to enjoy the 330d more so the actual average may well be lower.

From memory, when I was going to buy new, the additional standard spec on the 330d is metallic paint, servotronic steering, front parking sensors, sport automatic and lighting in the door handles etc. but someone else may be able to confirm this.
Totally agree on Audi economy and ride quality, NO comparison to BMW , the 330D will give great MPG and Audi bashing performance.
