Thanks… will have to rethink on Babbo then. Bigger box sounds good.
Have also discovered Riese & Muller, which if we get a good price for the car is possible. Is it the Rapha of cargo: nice but a bit pricey?

They're great, but the price felt really punchy! FWIW, if you want UA, Laid Back Cycles in Edinburgh is great (not sure which bit of east coast you're on!), but the lead times are killer from the sounds of it.

We’ve got a Babboe City Mountain. I rate it. We run it pretty hard with 3 kids and it’s been pretty solid. It handles the steep cobbled Edinburgh streets without too much hassle. I think the box has more space than a UA, but the UA is definitely a nicer spec, better finish, etc.
I think Raleigh just took over Babboe’s distribution in the UK, so spares and parts should be easier to find than they have been.
