Just that. We have 2 young DC and a dog, live in the countryside, enjoy walks and take a couple of UK holidays a year.

Need a car that is cheap to run as poss with a big enough boot for everything.

Budget is 6k top as well 😂

Have been looking at Skoda roomsters and yetis but haven't found any around here.

We recently got a VW Touran. The boot is big and has 2 fold up seats to become a seven seater if needed.

It isn't huge or wide but is of course longer.

£5k 2009, 77 thousand miles

It is helpful now that if you have the cars reg you can check it's MOT history online. So if for example the car suffers corrosion etc and it is not dealt with you can see it cropping up on the MOT history year after year.

Toyota Aurus Estate (officially called touring sports). Large boot but not a massive car. Toyota so should be reliable, I'm sure you'd get one in your budget

We had a Skoda Roomster on holiday and it was absolutely brilliant, small car with a massive boot. We got 4 big suitcases, pushchair and hand luggage on the boot and a height back booster and child on the back seat comfortably.
