We have around £7-8k to spend and want something that we can put three child seats in the back of – kids ages, 4, 2 and newborn. What is there?

VW touran
Vauxhall Zafira
VW Sharan
Ford Galaxy
Seat Alhambra
Renault scenic
Fiat Multipla.

Thanks Stanfree.

Honda FRV.

I can just fit three in my 406 estate. Its a squeeze but its doable.

Zafira's are very good, plus you've extra seats for babysitters/grandparents.

+1 for the FRV. Just handed ours back to the lease company after 3 years.
Very wide car, but the same length as a Golf.

almost every 4/5 door car will fit a baby seat, toddler seat and booster chair across the rear seats.
it's not the car, it's getting the right seats.
I need 4 boosters, 2 toddler and 1 baby seat in my car monday to friday but occasionally I've used other cars ranging from small compact hatches to saloons/estates and I've always managed to get 4 child seats in at a time in almost all configurations (keeping the extra seats in the boot and switching them about depending on occupants).

Multipla would be a good solution. Let me know if you want a look at mine.

size wise add Freelander and S-Max – price might be a problem
possibly current Mondeo

Got a touran here and can do what you need.

Our Golf mk v did and our current mk vi

Sharan here and looking to replace in next few weeks. Got 3 kids and VW is ace at packing everythng in. Proper seats and belts. Rack for box and bikes and tow bar for bike rack. Fab vehicle!

it's not the car, it's getting the right seats.

+1

We could only just squeeze two seats and an adult in the back of our cars, but I think 3 seats is easier.

Laguna estate, my mate has his three kids in his, good NCAP rating for the age of car as well.
