Can I get a good seven-seater for £10k?

I'm after a new family seven-seater for £10,000. Most are diesel but I don't do many miles and I am frightened of damaging the engine and filters. Can you suggest some suitable cars for £10k?

It's not very big, but you can get a 7-seater Toyota Verso 1.8i Valvematic within budget. Also a Vauxhall Zafira 1.6i, but 7 people inside is asking a lot of that engine.

Compact seven seater. Excellent Valvematic 1.8 petrol engine with smooth seven-ratio CVT gives 40+ mpg. Good reliability record.
Compact yet can house seven people. Rearmost seats fold into floor. More versatile mid-row seating than previous model. Excellent diesel auto.
