Can anyone recommend a car that squeezes 3 car seats for a newborn, 1 year old and 2 year old in the back?
Short of buying a big red bus! x

Citroen Zara I think and Vauxhall Zafira.
Perhaps Galaxy or Scenic too?

we have a Citroen Berlingo and fit our 3 across the back in their car seats.

Sliding doors and a huge boot as well!

Thanks for all the car suggestions!

Really appreciate it as have been driving around with the kids in the back and heavily pregnant but completely distracted as busy wondering if we can fit three car seat in the car in front!

Gonna go to the massive Car Giant near us next week and check out all the options.

Will keep you posted!

we've just got a fiat multipla and love it.

do all zafiras have 3 proper seat belts in the back?

Grand Scenic. We currently have 2 maxi cosi rodi's and a recarro young sport in the back. We have also had 2 bigger seats and a rodi.

there are 3 proper seats in back of standard scenic, though 3 boosters are hard to squeeze in (you'd be fine with 1 and 2 yr old seats though)
