When you test drive the 20d, could you try slowing down to very low revs in 2nd gear and then accelerating to see how much throttle / turbo lag there is?

I drove a brand new 320d in August and it was awful in the situation above, borderline dangerous when approaching a roundabout for example. One could count to 3 after pressing the accelerator before the car would pick up enough speed.
