dunno about granny but we had a Ford Escort 1.3 (1988 reg) that fitted 3 kids all on car seats. Haven't seen a modern escort though.

Our Citreon Xsara picasso is very roomy in the back, I reckon would easily fit 3 car seats in the back and two adults in front. Couldn't do 6 though

we have a Renault Megan Scenic and we have 3 children,1 in a car seat,1booster seat and the oldest no longer needs one .

have citroen xsara picasso and it struggles with 3 car seats in back, 1 baby seat, 1 booster and a high back booster. can be done but quite a squeeze. definitely no granny - would need a trailer

is it not illegal to put granny in the trailer nowadays?

asicsgirl · 15/11/2008 18:53

it was all a lot easier in my day - i used regularly to get a lift home with my friend in the boot of her mum's estate!!

We've got a Nissan Qashqai + 2 but that's a 7 seater.

There is a Citroen that's a 5 seater but the 3 seats in the back are all individual seata so all hold boosters. Can't remember the name of it for the life of me though

Ah normansmum, maybe that was the one I meant !

Have got 3 DD's and we have a Volvo XC90. Best car ever. Loads of boot space. Regular 5 seater, but can go to 7 seats if you put the ones up in the back. Always managed to get everything in there that we need. And believe me, we don't pack light .

Volvo XC90
Ford SMax
Peugeot 308 SW?
Zafira?

We have a chrysler voyager it has two seats in the middle row and three across the back. Boot big enough for a buggy - even phil and teds and shopping.

My sister gets her kids and mine into her zafira which means 1 x small booster, 1 x high back booster, 3 x forward facing seats though she is slightly sweaty after the struggle of getting them all in!

Other friends have a Touran which they recommend.
