Looking for a family SUV for €25,000...

Hi,

I am looking for an SUV that would fit two car seats and a booster base. I have one-year-old twins and a seven-year-old. Also need the boot space for a twin stroller. My budget is around €25k and my preference is to get a SUV and not a van shaped car like the VW Touran.

Any recommendations?

I want a normal car that holds three baby seats...

Hi,

We have two, soon to be three children and are looking to buy a new car. We currently have a BeSafe Stretch R129 car seat (rated for the middle seat), an Axxkid Minikid 3 and then a Maxi Cosi Cabriofix for the infant. We'd love to stay away from having three rows of seats if at all possible. Do you have any recommendations for cars that would fit the three across?

Thanks!

We need a bigger car for our kids...

Hi there!

Having just added to our family a few weeks ago for the second time, my faithful little Opel Astra is stretched to breaking point. My partner is 6ft 6'' and is squeezed into the driving seat and squashed against the car seat behind him and getting fairly fed up. We have been looking for something with a bit more room but we are really struggling. Any advice on what cars are best for tall drivers and rearward facing car seats?

Can I fit a child seat in the third row?

Hi,

We have a 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe. We are unable to install the three car seats we have in the middle row so are wondering if it is safe to install a convertible forward facing child car seat in the third row using the seatbelt? I know it might not be illegal but is it safe?

Thanks
