I have a Vauxhall Vectra 2.2 SRi. Dunno if it's big enough for buggies, car seats etc because Bubs isn't here yet but I'm sure it'll be fine.

I've got a Suzuki Ignis in this colour



I love my yellow cars

I fit 3 car seats in it but I don't have room for anyone else lol. That said it's perfect for me as we have a Vitara for family outings so I only need my little run around for trips to nursery

We looked into a Zafira GSi but decided against it. My Sister in Law has one however and she loves it.

We have a Nissan X Trail GT. I like it, although I've only had my licence a couple of months so it's actually the only car I've ever driven.
It's nice and high up though, so easy for lifting things (like kids) into and out of.

OH likes it coz it goes fast (although apparently doesn't handle as well as our old car).

I also quite like that it's a big w**ker-mobile. Makes me feel better about it when I park badly - I figure people will expect it of me!!

I've got a Jaguar s-type (plenty of space, fuel consumption leaves a little to be desired being a 3.0l sport auto), a rover 620 ISD (good fuel consumption and the has been an absolute gem to run, just hit 178,000 miles with zero work needed done on it except new brakes and tyres every year as per usual) and a rover 620ti (goes like sh*t off a shiny shovel and bought it for £250 in June - hehehe)

Once the 2nd rover's sold early next year I'm away to get another mk1 MX-5.....I'm not really helping the baby friendly issue here buying a 2 seat convertible

If you want something big, ecomonical and reliable go buy a desiel mondeo!

( or tell hubby to buy a boring senisble car and get something fun for yourself since you've had to carry bubba for 9 months!! haha)
