Time to buy a Multipla.

Or a Discovery if you have endless patience and a large budget for repairs. :grin:

You're never going to do it in the best way possible, which is three ISOFix mounts across the back - the Caravelle and Sharan definitely do have that (Touran might too).

Peugeot 806 too - you're a lucky kinda guy!

V70 R... :evil:
Although I like them they are a money pit, I am still banned from owning Volvo's :grin:
They are cavernous inside, but you cant beat a 960 or a V90 for rear seat space (not including flip ups in boot)
You can get an Ikea flat pack on the back seat and an army of Kids, with 200bhp under your right foot for tail out action when driving solo.
Monstrous barge & hated by bikers, I still love a proper Volvo :grin:

just get a multipla or one of those new fiat 500's on steriods :grin:

Touran does, and no saloon/ hot hatch back breaking bending down with seats/lifting/buckling in.

you had seats... we were lucky to have belts in the back!! :shocked:

oh and I have looked at a touran and I dont think 3 seats will fit that easy on the rear seat (excluding the seats in the boot) also the Sharan does have integrated child seats which will do older children (my 5 year old brother uses them)

I am also looking as the Golf is too small with the wife, 13 , 9 and 2 year old! why can't we go back to the 80's and let kids ride in the boot?

Post by: candywhite12 on 13 June 2013, 10:20: i am confident that 2 boosters and a stage 2 seat will fit just fine in the gti. I am having a test next week and will get back with (hopefully) triumphant pictures.
