No actually what I think would be best is the Mercedes-Benz S320 CDI. Good performance, very comfortable and a big fuel tank with reduced fuel consumption.
Why 530d with speed limits and 535d without? Both do 155mph, but the single turbo uses less fuel.
No "conditions" just the fastest car to get from Lisobn to Moscow.

The truth is with actual real world conditions a 520d would probably be the best because it has ample power and excellent fuel economy. As you said, a comfortable car that doesn't wear out the driver(s) and doesn't need to stop for gas are the two most important criteria. A MB E220 CDI probably wouldn't be bad either, I just like BMWs.
Most enjoyable: Audi A8 4.2 TDI.
