Nope, that means Baleno has a feeble body. Baleno has a 1.6 engine installed while lancer has a smaller 1.5 and esteem even lighter 1.3

This means Lancer's body is stronger.

i don't like any of the options,that you have.You have a decent budget & with a lancer diesel,you will end up paying 1.5L for the maintenece instead of accessories.

You should look for a petrol lancer/honda city -1.3/1.5. even a baleno will do,try other dealers. You should be able to find a 2001 model,at a resonable price.
