Family car and the carseat conundrum

    We have four kids, 11,9,7 and baby. Our eleven year old can sit in front but I need a car that will facilitate two booster cushions in the back and one car seat. We already have a seven seater, have been looking at Toyota Verso but would love to find a five seater car that could fit our requirements as our 9 year old will be out of her booster relatively soon. Any suggestions or guidance would be much appreciated!!

    You'll struggle to get a 5 seat car to work.

    Maybe the likes of a Renault Scenic? It has 3 individual seats in the rear?
    Also think the Citroen C4 has similar?

    Maybe also a Skoda Superb, lot of room in the back.

    If there was a 5 seater car to fit those requirements then there probably won't be any need for most 7 seaters to exist. :)

    Are you looking for a 5 seater car to accommodate 2 adults, 3 children and a baby in a car seat?

    Honda FR-V could be worth a look. 3 seats in the front to make 6X seats total.

    Thanks for the helpful suggestions. As I mentioned, we already have a 7 seater so this second car is for me driving some or all of the kids about. We need two cars but don't want to run two seven seater. The C4 Picasso five seater looks like the perfect option for us, it has three isofix spaces, I have lined up a test drive. Thanks Niman!

    I figured as much but hoped someone might unearth a possibility. C4 Picasso will hopefully do the job.
