2008 Toyota Estima 2.4 unreg - i'm guessing the oldest (2008) model would be where the starting price of RM118k starts. So what do you think? 20k extra from your budget but would be your dream car, right?
2005 Toyota Alphard 3.0 - it is cheap and recon, but prepare for a pretty hefty roadtax
Anyway I think your choice of Wish/Stream is good, but actually they're in the same class as the Livina, so space wise they're not far apart. Anyway, new Livina and unreg Stream/Wish would all be using 1800cc at maximum spec. Talking about spec the Wish has a slight advantage over the Steam as the Wish/Livina has doouble aircon blowers while the Steam only has one so it will get pretty hot for the back row of seats.
2016 Toyota Sienta 1.5 - you might have seen this so let me just tell what it is, basically it is the Toyota version of a Perodua Alza. A b-segment sized MPV. So, yeah, space wise it sucks. End.
2016 Chery Eastar 2.0 and 2016 Chery Maxime 2.0 - well actually the Maxime is the replacement model for the Eastar. I think you might have come across it. Based on specs and looks I'm quite suspicious it is some cetak rompak/JV version of an older Toyota Wish but I can't be too sure. There also is no crash test information for this car so driving it on highways often is a risk but spec wise it looks good. You might see these cars for sale so you have my two cents.
2010/2011 Toyota Wish 1.8 - i suppose end of the day the most wise choice would be picking up a car like this, the facelift model of the Wish, since it has a pretty good spec -- upgraded gearbox with 7AT, Eco mode, touch screen DVD, and limited warranty (normally for recon/grey import cars they'll give you a years worth of warranty for the major components like engine/gearbox). But of course it lacks the power doors and boot. Less headache with a Wish as maintenance and parts will always be cheap.

Looking for your advice, Which one is better?
I drop out Wish & Stream because some user told that it doesn't have rear aircond.
