Can you recommend a good size family car for up to £6,000?

I am a mother of two and would love a nice size family car that can fit two car seats in the back and also a large pushchair in the boot. I have a budget of £5,000 - £6,000 to spend and I am very indecisive so really need some help. I was driving a VW Polo before it was written off recently.

Have you considered a Honda Jazz? It's not a stylish choice but it is extremely versatile, with more room for car seats and pushchairs than your Volkswagen Polo. It's also likely to be an extremely reliable used car with low running costs. A Skoda Fabia Estate would be a good alternative, or the bigger Skoda Rapid Spaceback.
