We've had 4 Galaxies and now an SMax as our seating requirement has shrunk. All diesel/auto/cruisecontrol armchair-on-wheels drives. SMax works a treat and carries loads of gear, almost as much as the old Galaxy used to do. For example, it's packed tonight for a trip to the Alps, there are two dark side bikes plus all the bags in the space normally taken by the rear two seats, two mtbs on a carrier on the back, and there's three free seats in the middle that we'll offer to some of the other family travelling with us. When needed it fits seven ok, as long as it's kids in the back row, but no real luggage space then. And it also works as a windsurf van for me with space for one/two passengers.
