Is there a comfortable adult 5-seater? - BFM
We have three grown up boys who are now adult-sized. Since we drive quite a lot, we need something that can take plenty of luggage and has 5 comfortable adult-sized seats.

We have had a Galaxy, so far and it fails on both of those: the luggage is too small and, while the front seats are ok, all 5 rear seats are too small for adults.

Added to all that, my wife does not want to drive anything as long as a Grand Voyager and, besides, we don't need 7 seats - only 5!

So, have any of you knowledgeable experts out there got any ideas?

I have looked at large saloons, but they never have three real seats in the back. And my eldest would not be seen dead in a Multipla (well, the old one anyway)!

Interesting thought, PU, but I thought the Signum was specifically designed with two huge seats in the back to match the acres of leg room, rather than three regular?

Perfect. Buy a Multipla and the four of you will have acres of room.
