As a second car we've got a Toyota Yaris which regularly gets 50+mpg and it's got cheap road tax. Surprisingly my buggy fits in the boot, I have the Mothercare Trenton Deluxe which isn't small. The bonus is, the rear seats slide forward if needed, although the buggy does fit with the seats in the furthest back position. I have ridden in the back and there's loads of leg room for a little car (I have v long legs)

its a great car just not very practical when it was just hubby me and the older two it was fine, but the boot can only just fit our pram in and uts a push to get it in, and we cant fit the car seat and 2 boosters in. so next year looking to get a new car. even though the lexus is just over a year ikd, thinking an estate this time x
There is loads of hidden storage, and we always seem to fill it, go away buy loads more stuff and still be able to fit it all in the car easily to come home because of different ways to store things.
Its cheap to run, in the lower tax class, and only take about ??40 to fill it for a month (and hubby is a postman so uses it to drive quite a way)
it handles like his old sports corsa does, which sometimes makes him forget its a family car....

i've had a couple of Freelanders, a BMW X3, and now have a BMW X5.
there is loads of room (i have a big 3 wheeler), and this is always in the boot when i do a big family shop (there are 5 of us)
you also dont need to reach down when putting you baby in the car, as they are pretty much on a level with you!
otherwise, personally i would recommend a 4/5 door car, as your lo should be in the back really, and when you go out as a family, you want to sit with your oh in the front!
