Minivan

Hi all looking for some advice, we usually drive a 8 seat minivan. But for 21 nights it's over �900, had a flydrive quote from BA and a 12 seat minivan is �460. Anyone have any experience of driving a 12 seater.

Not much difference you just need a little more space to park

It would be a no brainer for me. One heck of a saving

Lets be honest the drivers seat position in these 12 or 15 seaters isn't great. Try driving one for a day!

But at that saving and most trips in Florida are quite short on the whole so well worth the tiny bit of discomfort

Remember an eight seat minivan (Toyota Sienna is the only one I know of ) is a totally different beast to a 12 seater ( which is based on a Transit style van)
So the drive will be different and not like the Toyota.

I drove a mini bus for a living, after a day or so you will find it easy. As previous poster said you just need a little more parking space.
