Sorry i have a Bailey Britange 6 birth single Axel. Serento was good but heavy on fuel and this day age it not cheap any more.. I dont no if anyone got a mazda 6 or insignia tourer and yes like the new Mondeo as i have old one..But dont look as though there have to much space in back and for 3 children on long journeys space is everything..
