We’re looking to buy a car, probably 3 years old ish but may consider new. What do you drive?

New discovery. The 3DC are all still in baby seats/high back booster.

I love it, so much more spacious than other 'large cars'. Honestly if you want space you should look at the disco, big Audi or big Volvo. Also fit the 3DC in our Range Rover but with the mess of kids I didn't want this as an everyday car for me.

Hyundai Santa fe. Loads of space for the three kids and dog and school bags and assorted other extra nonsense we cart about. Bit heavy on fuel is the only thing.

VW Sharan.

Citroen grand c4. It's a proper workhorse, done UK to Italy and back many times! DC are now all tall teens and it's getting snug. Got a Labrador to fit in too. Next car will be a VW Sharan or Seat Alhambra.

After this thread I'll be checking out the Prius plus and Kodiaq as well!

VWTouran. Three identical seats in the middle row and no " hump" on the floor so the middle dc doesn't complain about less legroom. Those things were quite difficult to find in a car when we were looking. I didn't want something so big that I couldn't park it and the Touran was just right.
