JUst wondering how The PASSAT WAGON would go for space in the back seat in terms of two baby seats and whether people in the front seat have enough leg room and are comfortable (i suppose bit taller than average adults) and whether the boot will fit a couple of prams etc

Any helpful advice would be appreciated as it is doing my head in!!!!!

Im leaning towards a VW Passat Wagon but wife is worried that it is too small for a family car and the VWs cost a lot to maintain and aren't reliable cars...but i reckon it drives and looks great

HELP
We have an 07 Passat V6 Wagon, 46000km. we are just back from a Sydney/Thredbo trip. Plenty of room for me, wife and two boys (3 and 5), three large suitcases, jackets bags and groceries etc. Also have an aftermarket DVD mounted on the back of the drivers seat feeding off the lighter socket on the back of the centre console. Car was great on the open road with enough power for over taking with all the gear etc.

Negatives - two failed catalytic converters, an engine rebuild (paid for by insurance), needs new brakes, jammed park brake. Some would say wear and tear but my subaru or BMW have been driven a lot harder and have never worn so quickly or had such problems.
