Sies...
Etios Cross is just horrid.....
Personal opinion of course, They ruined what is a very very very average car by sticking plastic crap on the sides and rebranding it.

Might just need to replace the indicators as they usually don't work.

What is wrong with German engineering?
Your sample size of 1 is incomplete in the extreme.
I've had 4 BMWs in my life, 4 VWs, 2 Opels and a Mercedes. None of them have had any stupid engineering issues other than those I've introduced through modification or poor maintenance.
The Japanese cars I've had have had more weird engineering issues actually.
That 2012 320D motor is rock solid, the gearbox is more than likely rock solid as well (not much experience with that specific box)

I can second this.
Smoothest changes I've had were in an Accent (post-2012 model).
Might stretch your budget though.
