Buy car to drive not to hit is very stupid. That way no need insurance too, right? A safe car is a health/life insurance that works before you are injured/dead.
4 people only need MPV? Anyway, Peugeot 5008 (based on old Citroen C4 Picasso) and the all new Citroen C4 Grand Picasso. Thr C4 will be more comfortable (ride), more modern, a bit safer, better looking and very fuel saving (diesel), but also more expensive. If you don't mind getting an excuse for going to massage all the time then the VW Touran can be considered too, though it should offer less space.
For more space there is the Ford S-Max and the VW Sharan.
If you want more airbags and a new car with warranty and stuff, the choices I've listed are what you'll probably have to pick from. The Exora Prime has 2.
Personally I'd get the C4 Grand Picasso. The Sharan is overkill for you, I'd say that's between Estima and Alphard. You don't need that much.
Nice, torquey diesel engine with a regular 6 speed torque converter, so unlike VW and Ford no need to worry about DSG.
If you can wait I'd wait a bit to see if Citroen is going to CKD it, which should mean it gets EEV status and thus lower taxes, thus a lower price tag (currently at 190k).
There's a reason why this car is more or less _the_ family MPV in Europe.
And a very successful one. 67000 sold in 6 months, most popular MPV in Europe. Toyota's competitor did 17600, outsold even by the 5008 with 20200. The Mazda5 sells in pathetically low numbers.
Quite big. I'm not gonna use the 3rd row so maybe its okay to grab this
If u don't need the 3rd row the Touran would be fine too, my major gripes with it are the harsh suspension (which will ease up a bit over time, and smaller rims would probably also help) and the useless 3rd row (unless you transport amputees...). Boot space is quite decent.
But yeah, go, buy a C4 Grand Picasso, so that Citroen doesn't give up the Malaysian market again
