from what I have seen the 7 seaters are not roomy at all .. more like a galaxy with very little 'boot' space ..so maybe a couple of cases in the back and the rest on the spare seat... we have always gone for an 8 seater when there are 6 of us..

dont know how much a taxi is sorry

Hiya - we had a 7 seater for 6 of us - if you check out this - this thread contains details and photo's of cars hired by Dibbers - gives you a better idea of the sizes/capacity

Hi
Always hire a 7 seater but there is only 4 of us. We manage with our 5 cases and buggy. The last one we had was a newer model that had a deeper boot.
I would suggest that it wont be big enough if you have a lot of bags.

I agree with Dave, we had a 7 seater for us, 2 adults and 2 kids and we kept the back seats down for the buggies while we were there.

We got the luggage in but that was only 2 large cases and 2 small, but there won't be enough room for lots of luggage.

We've had a 7 seater the past 3 trips for 6 of us (4 adults, 2 children) plus associated luggage & buggies.
have had to put some smaller bags in the aisle going to/from the airport but never had any real problem with space

We have not been yet but have booked a 7 seater for 2 adults & 2 young children, we upgraded twice and decided on the 7 seater because of the luggage especially coming home with all the shopping we plan on doing! i would say at a guess that it woud not be big enough for 6 of you plus luggage, do you have kids? if so and they are young buggies to consider too!

either way i am sure you will manage!

We had a 7 seater dodge last year 4 adults & 3 kids. We found it had plenty of room. The boot space was larger than the dodge on the link above.

We get 7 seaters for 2 adults & 2 kids. Boot holds a full set of 4 cases
(22"/24"/26"/28") plus a holdall. Reckon you'd get another 2 medium cases down the aisle and another one or two little ones on the spare seat.


It depends on whether you are a group of adults or a mix of adults and kids I suppose.

Wev'e got a 7 seater for next year for 5 adults and 1 child. We had one this year for 2 adults (free upgrade from economy ) I would say you would get 2 large cases and a bag in the boot, 1 large case and a bag next to the sliding door, 1 small case between the driver and passenger seat and a couple of large cases and a bag on the spare seat (resting on the case next to the sliding door) I think there will be plenty of room from the airport to the hotel as we take some empty cases inside the others so luggage 'out' will be a minimum. We are staying at pop and doing freetime checkin on the way back so if need be i will make 2 trips to drop the cases off as it won't take long. For the rest of the hol it will be more than big enough, we'll only have all that luggage for a total of about 1 and half hours for the 2 weeks.
