CH_CO 6th Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 Get a 2nd hand 1.8 Freed or the 2nd hand Stepwagon. Stepwagon is good for big family. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron_soh80 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 No la, if i'm not wrong... AIR wave is a 5 seater ( 1.5l) and a cargo boot la... Its abit small to be a MPV [laugh] I see.. i guess wish/stream is a good choice..but is too common a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 2 picanto lo.. haha joking.. i thought airwave is 7 seater aso? the behind seat is foldable? I've seen my friend's Airwave... Find that the boot space / 3rd row seat is not what I expect a compact MPV to be... Actually I don't even consider Airwave to be an MPV... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thedecemberone 3rd Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 Give the 7 seater Daihatsu Terios a thought. Only 1.5L and economical. So far I have not been able to seriously accept PI cars. Can't understand why but that's my thought. Probably it's the lower resale value and the technical support. But that's jsut me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Engine is the same as Terios But come to think of it, the car is quite big.... And its only 1.5l engine... Really wonder if there's really enough power [confused] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enye Hypersonic August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 I suggest a 4 year old to 5 year old full size MPV e.g. Ody, Grandis, Presage. They should cost <$60k and give you lots of space including boot space. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatbirdlegend 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 Saw the Ssangyong Stavic during their road show few months back when they were offering discounts. Very nice big car at reasonable price but the road tax gave me a fright. Not sure if the insurance would be just as scary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 you xiao crazy arh??? from 1.5L hatchback to 2.4L MPV??? the insurance ($1000/yr diff???), road tax ($355 for 1500cc, $855 for 2400cc).... and don't forget the fuel consumption??? don't even need to factor in the difference in cost.... it'll be quite a financial drain and burden already....

Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear August 30, 2010 Share August 30, 2010 a good consideration would be the Citroen C4 Grand Picasso.... the latest version comes with 1.6T 155bhp 240Nm, 6 Semi-Auto.... S$109,988 for new one.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoonz 4th Gear August 30, 2010 Author Share August 30, 2010 Well, come to think of it...
