Best option for 4 mil (2019/20)

[B@tman]

Open discussion. You are looking for a car to buy in the current market for around Rs. 4 million (Let's say 3.5 - 4.5 range). No specific requirements. Any body type, any fuel type, could be second hand or brand new. You are just looking for a solid vehicle which is good value for money in the current market. What would you choose and why? 

Would like to hear the AL forum thoughts on this. 

Reason for starting the thread: I have a similar requirement. I have a favorite choice, but haven't been able to find one in good condition for the right price. So my plan B is to buy a solid vehicle which is not too boring, and good value for money. I've been reading the threads and browsing sale sites to find a vehicle for the last couple of months, and still cannot make my mind up about what to buy. So I'm hoping to hear  your thoughts/ ideas  decide based on that.

Corolla 141 -

Comfortable with good space for passengers and luggage, decent performance and handling, bullet proof build quality, no known major faults.

Easy to maintain with good parts availability, routine maintenance services does not require specialist or equipment.

Good specimens with decent mileage and full service history available if you shop around.

Lancer EX/ Honda Civic/ Mazda 3 will be main rivals which outshine the Corolla in certain aspects, but not overall package.
