6/7 seater car for upto £6000?

p5x

I'm after a 6 or 7-seater car with a MAX budget of £6000. What models are worth looking at and which one's are a definite no-no?

I've had a look at the Ford Galaxy and the Vauhall Zafira, which other one's are worth taking a look at and approximately how old should it be to be within my price range?

Thanks

How old are the people that will have to sit in the back, the Zafia is more cramped there than the Galaxy?

Avoid anything made by Mercedes, Peugeot, Citroen or Renault. The Merc, Peugeot and Citroen ones are all van-based. The Reanult Espace is prone to expensive problems.

I'd go for the Galaxy personally, but then I've got one and it's my second one!

They're the most car-like and are good to drive.

The Zafira isn't pleaseant to drive and you will find it a bit small.

We had an Espace that we had for years and years and served us very well and was easily big enough as our sons grew bigger. We only sold it in the end as it needed some expensive work done on it and we originally decided to buy a smaller car instead.

However, we ended up trading in the Espace for a Citroen C8 as we were so impressed with the C8. Another great car, very flexible and the fuel consumption is very good.
