People Carriers
Right, me and my mates have had a crazy idea, we want to buy a people carrier between us so we can take a group of us down to newquay and various other places in one car.
What I want is suggestions from you lot as to which to buy.
Around seven seats and with enough space for luggage, what ideas you got people

think you can drive a 14 seater mini bus only if your not being paid to drive it.

People carriers are shit, the more people you have the more luggage you have to take but the less space you have to put it in, get yourself a rear wheel drive tranny minibus, muchos room, muchos cool, and muchos cheap

Zafiras are great but you won't get 7 adults in and any luggage. In fact, you need to be a midget to fit in the back seats.
However if you want one we have about a dozen in stock from Ł3995
The only REAL 7 seater that has any decent room in is the Honda Shuttle!
But as said above, get a cheap derv transit minibus with 14 seats and take the last row or so out for luggage.
I believe the rules are you can drive a 14 seater if it's not for profit? But sounds like you don't need that many anyway?

if we were to get a 12 seater transit bus, and took out 4 seats, we'd be able to drive it without having a minibus licence?
DVLA says 8 seater is the max I can drive
