    thanks, the bays in our undergraound car park might be a bit tight for it though.....

    Fiat Multipla. They look really nice as well.

    Or a Honda FR V. I doubt an A6 would be much wider than your volvo.

    Edit: Just realised with your budget you'd be wanting something a bit nicer than a Fiat or a Honda. I'm not sure that any other mid size cars will be much wider than our volvo? Maybe look at something like range rover, X5 if you can stomach the tax?

    Own an FR-V myself, ideal for 3 boosters.

    Saw this in the Guardian newspaper website. A bench seat which allows 3 or 4 children or babies to be restrained in the back seat of a standard sized car. Could be a €1500 to €2000 option if you are happy enough with your current vehicle.

    08 on Mondeo believe it or not, as wide as an S-Class Merc. ;)

    Have you considered keeping your car and buying a multimac for the back?

    Edit, nashbridges got there earlier

    Skoda superb - friend has one and said it was one of the key criteria from him - he needed to be able to fit 3 booster seats in the back and close the doors..
