  • another option to consider is the Citroen Berlingo - i personally think its a better car, especially if you have kids, than the Picasso.
    the Sliding rear doors make access very easy in tight car parks, without the risk of damaging other cars. Huge boot, and 3 full seats in the rear with 3 point belts

    They hold their value as well. Bought ours at 3 years old at £5000 sold 4 years later for £2500

  • what about a fiat multipla? the newer ones 2005 plate are a different style to the old ones, they have now removed the "nose" off the bonnett and rounded it a bit.

    you can pick one up for about £4-5K a few years old.

    Yo, Angelcake - don't stress yourself - newborn aaah.... There is your priority! Guy at work bought an 04 Galaxy and is pleased with it size wise - has his third on the way, so plenty of room, although earlier models have had problems.

    As said before - after I'd burst you bubble, if it has warranty, then you are 'safe' for awhile.

    I've got a Ford and am happy about that! It was an ex ford lease car - had only 2,500 miles on it - ok, can't fit babies in, but. ex lease cars can be had at good prices. I've got year and a half warranty left on it too. There is the S max and C max to be thought of. Sorry i don't rate French. We get them in and can be troublesome, especially electrics wise.

    I don't know what area you are in but happy if you want to pm me :D
