Cheap reliable 7 seaters!?
in Baby
Hey Girls,
well me and my OH have a big car each (nothing flash) - in all honesty we don't need two he works down the road and we've shared before when he was between cars for a few weeks and actually were quite good at giving it to who ever needs it the most rather than thinking of our own wants.
I have a baby and another on the way - also we'd like more in the future, and I do take my mum and auntie out quite a bit both elderly so really just one small car wouldn't meet our needs.
We don't want to spend a fortune (lol if only we had one!!) but really sell both our cars and add a bit extra to get a decentish second hand 7 seater - were not really fussed on brands or makes just one that will be a good runner (as much as you can hope for) and things to look for or avoid as we have no ideas about bigger cars.
I just wondered if anyone had any suggestions? or if anyone would say to look out for - i.e a big enough boot as we'll have a double buggy ect.. things you notice once you have the bigger family..
we were thinking something like a ford Galaxy.. what do you think? lol as I'm a bit clue less really! x
p.s were looking to spend between 2- 3 thou x

It will tell you about which second hand versions are the best value for money and the niggles that you might get with certain cars and/or versions.

James is gonig to be put in for his test soon and I am starting lessons in the summer.
Like you, we want a second hand 7 seater. As long as it works and its safe we dont care really.
my dream of owning a BMW X5 or a Subaru is now long gone lol
