    Ford Galaxy, I can sell you one :p

    All joking aside, you will struggle in most Crossover/SUV to get 3 teenagers comfortable in the back. These would include Qashqai/Tucson/Sportage/Niro/Puma/RAV/X-trail/etc etc. They will fit but I wouldn't say they would be comfortable.

    You are probably looking at a MPV. The Galaxy/Alhmabra/Sharan are the largest and the advantage is that if you need to carry anyone else then the 2 back seats will fits adults no problem. Any of the rest of the MPV they won't be comfortable.

    I have 7 adults in my Galaxy and everyone was perfectly happy.

    Apart from that the next size down is SMAX. A little bigger than other MPV

    Then you have the whole loads of them. Peugeot/Citreon/Opel etc. The back seats in these would maybe fit a cruched up teenager for a short trip if you needed to use the other seats.

    All will come in diesel. You won't find a petrol in second hand market.

    If you up the budget to 30k+ you could look at the new Peugeot 5008 which is a SUV but keeps the 3 big seats in it. Major selling point.
