We are needing to replace our car. We want to buy a car now that will see us through the next 10 years of kids at home. DH is 6'7" I am 6'1" We have a DD aged 14 who is 6'2" and may grow a little taller. We have DS aged 12 who is 5'5" and projected to be same height as DH and we have DD aged 10 who is likely to be approx 6' tall.
We need a car that is comfortable for long journeys as we drive to Germany/Austria to see family. We also have a dog.
Any tall familys with suggestions. Oh...and we also would like a 7 seater as often have extras on board.
Our current car is a Renault grand scenic and has been great but the recent models have storage between front 2 seats which gives limited leg room to the child in middle seat. We currently have a nice space between front seats which enable me to travel home from scotland with a broken leg by sitting in middle at the back with leg fully extended and raised between front 2 seats!
We have tried a few and unfortunately although the Alhambra looked good, DH did not find it comfortable to test drive.
Currently DH favourite option is Ford Tourneo Grand which is great value for money but a bit basic and a bit of a van (but maybe with the need for headroom that's the price you have to pay)
Any experience/suggestions welcome. Thanks
