Sharan and Touran are a bit pricey but maybe I get luckyI don't know about the others, but I remember when shopping around (for the same reasons) that these all have 3x separate sears in the rear, meaning loads of space for child seats.
I've had a mk1 Touran for 4 years now and it's decent IMO. You can also take out the 3x rear seats and it'll swallow so much stuff. You also get the SUV driving height without the cunt status, and it's only marginally longer than a Golf I believe. The only thing I really hate is the lack of spare wheel, so now I have a spacesaver bungee-strapped in the boot.

Whats DHB/Decathlon of cars?
My purpose is to haul family of 5 (parents, us and a child) for longer trips. I currently own a Fabia estate, absolutely amazing car except when 3 people have to sit at the back; very narrow with a child car seat. Its primo bangernomics, bought for £2k pre pandemic and had 2 owners and 95k miles on clock, its been absolutely fine.
I am looking for a similar economics; i know I cant get anything for £2k; can stretch to £10k. need to be slightly wider at the back with no compromise in boot space, the Fabia I have has 480 litre boot. I was looking at:
I know nothing about cars so I would buy from a dealer OR if its a really good deal with a private seller will factor in AA inspection.
What else should I look at? Are the cars on the list absolute shit?
Pls help.
