    Isofix or non isofix or combination?

    Most of the big saloons will fit 3 car seats but depends on the car seats.

    Not sure what you mean by a 'Wagon' but I would recommend any of the MPVs, like the 'Renault Megane Scenic' for example . . .

    Saloons you say . . .

    Volkswagen Bora saloon, Renault Megane saloon, Honda Accord saloon, Mitsubishi Lancer saloon, Skoda Fabia saloon, Peugeot 407 saloon, Honda Civic saloon, Seat Cordoba saloon + many more too . . .

    The list is endless, (all saloons) but all with limited space for three children + all their stuff (travel cots, prams, etc), maybe you should consider an estate or an MPV? I know they are a pain to park, but the bigger internal space would really help you a lot.

    I think there is a thread about this somewhere on the motors forum.

    I wouldn't recommend the Megane, after just getting rid of one today, I really don't think it will fit 3 seats.

    The best bet is to go to somewhere like Airside Motorpark in Swords that has a lot of different dealers, and bring the seats with you.
    Ask them what cars they have that will fit them, and then try to get them in.

    Yes I saw the thread in Motors but it is very out of date - new models are now bigger.
    Think I will just have to try some cars.
