We have been offered a free car by my dad - an old style 5 door honda civic and am considering whether to take him up on it. We currently have a Peugeot 307 SW which we bought nearly new a year ago. The peugeot is great, very economical, great to drive, fits loads in the back (including our massive mountain buggy and the rest, trips to the garden centre regularly). And it can fit 3 car seats across the back or 2 car seats and an adult.
How will the civic compare? Will it fit a mountain buggy without taking the wheels off? Does it take 3 car seats? We've got a maxi cosi priori and a maxi cosi rodi at present, but want to be able to fit a 3rd child in if we have one and if we take a friend out for ds1 or school pick ups etc. Ideally. But a free car would be quite a good deal, obviously
