Ok heres the scenario. Im changing my car at Christmas so I need to order by August at the latest. Ive started looking at whats on offer but really havent found anything suitable.

I need an automatic/semi automatic, big enough to take 7 people COMFORTABLY. Child car seats are huge! I also need a big enough boot after this to take my chair (fixed frame) and a double buggy (Phil and Teds 3 wheeler)

Ive looked at all the usual suspects, Citroen, Ford, Kia, Seat etc, but none have a big enough boot. You can get a couple of bags in max.

I was looking at maybe a minibus like the Renault Trafic but I think my licence may restrict this.

Any ideas gratefully recieved!!
