We drive a Ford Mondeo with three kids in the back. Pretty sure a Mazda 6 would be ok too.
The only problem is that most of these cars don't have 3 anchor points, which is ok for us now as DS1 is in a half booster.
I am looking into a seven seater like the new Nissan Dualis or the Captiva as they don't seem as big as the other SUV's on the road.
Another to consider is a station wagon as you can fit three in the back and put one of those d i c k i e seats in the back as well if you are picking up kids and their friends.
We have a 2006 Mitsubishi Grandis. It is a seven seater car. It is regarded as a station wagon, not an SUV. We bought it second hand 2 months before our third child arrived.
And we could definitely fit another child in there
I suggest you do a web search on the Grandis. I had never even heard of them until I started researching vehicles while pregnant with #3.
The other option would be a Honda Odyssey. They are a 7 seater. It is a wagon also not an SUV.
I am happy to answer any questions if you have them. Good luck!
We are looking for one at the moment that can take 2, and honestly, to get in 3, I think you will need to go for a commodore or falcon, they are the only things we have seen that would fit them comfortably and allow the driver to put heir seat back (that aren't SUVs, 4WDs, or People Movers - none of which we want if we can help it) But DH is tall, and we need the room for him to drive the car with a rearward seat in the middle...Commodore it is!
