Karu 6th Gear March 4, 2010 Share March 4, 2010 Estima is good. but i wont consider Previa unless its only around 100K region. cause Previa IMO is not as good as Estima. Cause Previa got tired under the 3rd row while Estima dont have. This free out a lot of cargo space. Plus i can keep Estima 3rd row to make it a BIG SUV.(at least lie to myself). Around $100K ($90 - 110), what are the options for decent sized MPV?? Dun think there are many... What's the diff in price between Previa & Estima?? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the diff in price between Previa & Estima?? Estima is wonderful in space. Maybe a Estima Hybrid will be good for FC too? heheh Go green Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karu 6th Gear March 4, 2010 Share March 4, 2010 Actually I've look through the list of MPVs in the around 100K range. Most are mini MPVs... 1) Stream 2) Wish 3) Sorento (7 seater SUV) 4) Touran 5) C4 Grand Picasso 6) Santa Fe (7 seater SUV) 7) S-Max Think decent size MPVs (estima, previa, ody etc) are in the 120K & above region.

Osiris 1st Gear March 4, 2010 Share March 4, 2010 He already said Picnic too small - Wish CMI lah ! Actually MPV is dangerous if you kena Kiss Backside. The 3rd Row has no protection. No really. My stream kenna kiss backside 60-70kmh while I'm stationary. rear reinforced hatch suffered slight-moderate dent externally. nothing protrude internally. most rear hatch are reinforced Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdscm Neutral Newbie May 25, 2011 Share May 25, 2011 Hi all, I wanna upgrade from Nissan Sunny 2007 to a 7-seater as my 2 kids are growing (include a maid, mother...) Would appreciate all brothers and sisters to recommend a 7 seaters less than 1.8cc Currently, I'm keen on Honda Freed or VW Torgan. But any other recommendation? Thanks in advance.

Would appreciate all brothers and sisters to recommend a 7 seaters less than 1.8cc Currently, I'm keen on Honda Freed or VW Torgan. But any other recommendation? Thanks in advance. My Touran is serving me well so far. Power & drive is more than decent. But how often do u need the last row? It'll be very cramp for passenger behind. My 3rd row is down most of the time unless my maid goes out with us. Edited May 25, 2011 by Karu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would appreciate all brothers and sisters to recommend a 7 seaters less than 1.8cc Currently, I'm keen on Honda Freed or VW Torgan. But any other recommendation? Thanks in advance. Honda Crossroad. Kids can take the last row. 12km/l. High road clearance means no problem with those humps and kerbs. Some used units available much more economical than the Freed or Touran. Fold flat 2nd & 3rd row for those Ikea days. They don't come more practical than this. 2008 models are going for around $78k in sgcarmart. And it is not as boring as other MPVS.

Reminds me of SAF Landrover, damn ugly!! Otherwise I agree it's a nice crossover with 3rd row. Sorento is another solid SUV with 3rd row. But u can forget about good FC.

To each his own... I don't like the truck like dashboard! The original fabric for hondas are quite high quality one. The one on my old airwave was very confortable & lasting, no need for leather.

But once in a while when WHOLE (wife, me 2 kids, maid and mom...with wheelchair) But usually, without mom and wheelchair.. thus, sunny is getting cramp with 3pax behind. Will test drive Touran... what about Mazda 5? Any place I can test drive Freed? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
