What should I replace my Ford C-Max with?

I want to replace my 2011 Ford C-Max 1.6 diesel. I want another diesel, but am not sure what to buy. I am tempted by the Citroen C4, Skoda Yeti and the Vauxhall Zafira Tourer. I have also been looking at the Fiat 500L, which comes fitted with mud and show tyres. Do you know of any other manufacturers fitting these as standard?

The 500 Trekking is fitted with a similar system to the Peugeot 2008 involving an electronic trick diff and excellent Goodyear Vector 4 Seasons tyres. You can also get this combination on the Panda trekking and several other Citroens and Peugeots including the Berlingo.
