Hi
We currently have two vehicles - a VW Sharon (late 90s) which is great for size but is expensive to maintain and a 2001 Subaru Legacy which is reliable but doesn't fit the whole family. We are thinking of changing to one car as we rarely use both at the same time.

We are a family of five - the 3 kids (aged 6, 4 and 1) are all in car seats and we often have an extra child in the car (usually with only one adult).

Most travel is around town (kindy and school etc) with the occasional road trip.

Budget is well under $20k - preferrably less than $15k!

Thanks

A couple of options for you to at least have a look at.

The Toyota Ipsum has been a very popular family vehicle and some models come with a third row of seats if required.

The other vehicle which has become very popular is the Honda Stream which also has the extra seating if required.

If you find those too small then you may have to consider something like a Toyota Previa or Honda Odyssey.
