Budget & Compact MPV

[Alfisti168]

I vote for grand picasso too, really quite nice.

...... until the electronics start to pengsan.

 

IMO, go for Jap if you want an MPV. Uu won't go wrong.

remember there was this lecturer, who told us there were only 2 happy days when he owns the citroen.

 

the day he bought it & the day he sold it...

Guess it still depends on your budget. MPV can range from the Sienta (<70k) to Alphard (130k).

 

Higher speed driving the Alphard not nice - very shaky, and the wheels very small for the body so ride quality not so good on North South...

 

If want good highway the Oddeysey (i can never spell) is nice - but if can I would love to look for the Mugen version

now Citroen not that bad la...

 

but i still find the C5 cramp...(rear seats are useless, can't even fit me if i slide the front seats all the way back as the front is cramp)...

 

Grand C4 Picasso though huge outside, inside is not any larger than the Wish, which is cramp for me...and just look at the price!! $90,988 for the jerky semi-auto basic edition...

 

if i were to get an MPV, i'd definitely get the Alphard 3.5G...

 

i don't even want to go anywhere near the Odyssey...last time i checked out the showroom unit, i knocked me head against the pillars and rear boot...it's more like a station wagon than MPV la...

 

if you want ultimate luxury, get the 2004 Mercedes Vito 112CDI LWB register it as car, make it a 5-seater, put front&rear recliners with legrest, massagers and cooling seats, with rear 42inch flatscreen TV with fridge and lie-flat seats to become a bed plus shackpile carpets and full interior trimmings......

 

that is proper luxury to me!!

Any one check out the most value for $ 2nd hand MPV???

 

I check out Trajet and Wish , both 2005/6 model..

 

Deprec quite low, but FC no good for Trajet...

 

Is getting 1st hand more worth it now or 2nd hand?

[Ferraricalifornia]

it depends la...

 

if you're interested in the previous wish, then obviously 2nd hand is the only choice...

 

Trajet is decently spacious la...but the 2.0L CVVT 136bhp is really lethargic...the 2.0L car weights 1.8tonnes you know??

 

Wish is only for 2 adults and 7 children...unless you don't mind cramming 4adults and 3children...

 

get the Proton Exora brand new if you just want a MPV as a mode of transport...it doesn't have any power whatsoever and the interior is greyish drab and plasticky...but it has tonnes of space...if that is important to you...i think now selling at $58,999??

for those who have used Sienta for years & months, how's the performance on the road when driving on the highway in M'sia with a full load?

 

At what speed only it'll become 'shaky'?

 

also, how's the pick-up speed like, after stopping at the traffic light?

 

does Sienta come with leather seats?

 

what's the depreciation value for Sienta?

 

please share the cons of Sienta on the features & performance.

 

Any problems on the automation features like the auto-door, etc?

 

average, how much is the full-tank?

 

has anyone tried to drive up to Genting or Cameron Highlands with Sienta?

 

i dont see many used Sienta in the market, is it the car is too good till not many want to sell?

 

Sorry for asking many blunt questions & Thanks in advance.

There are at least a few hundred sientas in Singapore considering how often i can see them. And yes, not many people want to sell, because most of us bought it cheap ($56K-$64K), so if sell now, then can buy what MPV for that type of price in the current MPV market?
