    We have a Captiva and love it - BUT you will have 3 children in car seats and there is no way known you can get 3 car seats across the back seat and it is illegal to put an anchored carseat in the third row of seats. The kluger is wider than the captiva so you should be able to get three seats across the back seat in that one. As much as I love the Captiva, it really isn't a car for a family with more than 2 young children in seats. It only suits us because of the ages of our kids and we only needed to have 2 seats in it.

    X trail - fantastic! I'm not a "car" person, but I do love my X-trail - great boot set up, wide enough for 3 car seats and just great all round.

    Why do you want an SUV?
    If it is a space thing you would probably get more bang for your buck from a wagon.
