whitevanman Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 In fairness she will only have 4 kids so a 6 seater would do........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross_K Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 [Pedant mode] Thats a 6 seater [/Pedant mode] 2 adult + 4 children = how many? 750 quid Espaces/Galaxys/Sharans are generally fucked beyond belief. Ask me how I know. Multiplas in the same price range are generally not as fucked. If she can stretch to a grand, she might get a 307sw. Which is the best 7-seater evar. And women like driving them cos they're not the size of a bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxobarges_Are_Us Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 What better* than a Volvo/Scorpio/Omega limo off a funeral director's? There seems to be a constant supply of them on the bay of e. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wuvvum Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 You should be able to get a half-decent series 3 Metrocab for £750. May be lacking a little on boot space for a family of 6, but on the plus side there's a built-in partition to keep the kids safely in the back. For something a little more conventional, there seems to be quite a few Hyundai Tragics about for that kind of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I've no idea if these are any good or not but seems to fit the bill.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1993-TOYOTA-ESTIMA-PREVIA-2-2-TURBO-DIESEL-7-SEATER-MPV-MOTD-TOWBAR-/280960919510?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item416a9367d6 The diesels ones are absolutely effing rubbish. Petrol ones are far less likely to expire in their own steam. Agree about the older Sharan/Galaxy/Alhembra things, most have been viciously abused by myriad screaming, crayon holding, snotty little bastards and driven over speed humps at 60mph by desperate mums. Thus I shall suggest what everyone else was thinking but was scared of saying: get a Zafira, the 1.6 16V petrol ones seem best. Hold their values well, better screwed together than the Ford/VW?Seat offering and have superb residuals, even the old ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catsinthewelder Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Chap over the road has been trying (not very hard) to sell an early Previa for ages. It has a cracked windscreen, high milage and I'd imagine rusty discs by now. He'll let it go for a couple of hundred or so as hes emigrating and doesn't want to scrap it, leaves plenty of change for a screen and some T+T. I think its even old enough for classic insurance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing to note:The older Zafiras have three proper seatbelts in the "middle" row, but from '02 or '03 on the middle seatbelt was a lap belt. Handy to know if you're fitting kiddy seats, but probably not applicable in the OP's case as 750 quid wouldn't buy you one of the newer Zafiras anyway.

garethj Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 As ever at that price, you're buying on the condition of the individual car, not just how good it was when new. Mitsubishi Chariot might be worth searching for on ebay, or Toyota Picnic. Both a bit older, but a good one might turn up locally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dieselnutjob Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 my 806 HDI has been pretty bomb proof and still going strong at 215,000 miles. Only big hassle has been the DMF which I replaced with a solid flywheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
