Trying to decide on the following.

1. Suzuki Ertiga - 1.4L
2. Toyota Avanza - 1.5L
3. Nissan Grand Livina - 1.8L
4. Chevy Spin - 1.3L diesel or 1.5L gas

My initial sentiments:
1. We have a 1.4L Swift and it's barely quick and nimble. Putting the same engine in the Ertiga (essentially an extended-body Swift) could make for a sluggish vehicle.
2. I've driven a 2008 Avanza only once and it was a year ago. Can't recall much about the experience.
3. The Grand Livina seems to be the most powerful of the lot and probably the least fuel-efficient. However, it's cousin, the Nissan Note, is among the top 5 compact MPV in some countries.
4. The Spin seems to be the only model with a Diesel option. If the overall cost of ownership is low, I'd probably choose this. Unless...

My next step is to test drive each of these cars. Though that could take a while. In the meantime, I would very much appreciate any feedback from current owners.... Any notable problems on the vehicle, warranty, aftersales, parts availability, PMS costs, etc.

Thanks!
