Hi all
I am living up to my PCForum username as my wife and I have had news yesterday that we are expecting Twins, AGAIN!! We already have a 5yr son and twin girls who are 3yrs and thought we'd make it an even number! How wrong were we!! lol I don't know anyone who has had 2 sets of twins (without IVF etc of course) so thought the risk was low of having another set naturally!!!
It brings few questions which someone may be able to answer.
Firstly - The car we will need!! We currently have a 7 seater VW Touran but we wouldn't get our current twin pushchiar behind the back seats when all 7 seats are in use so we need a new 7 seater which had a bit more room behind the rear most seat BUT, the vehicle needs to be a good tow vehicle also as we will no longer all fit into my Defender as only has 5seats so the familt car will become the tow car. (Wife will not entertain van/light commercial type people carriers like VW Caravelle as I have already asked) lol
Which leads me nicely onto the caravan - Since knowing we were expecting we had started to nose around online at 6 berth vans and while the children are young I don't want to have anything to plush so will limit my spend to about 5-6k. Want as big as possible, we had singled out the Avondale Argente 650 due to it's door being at the lounger end and the huge back bedroom having 4 bunks. Would anyone like to recommend any other options for a large young family. This time next year when we go on our first outing, we will have a 6yr old, 2x 4yr olds and 2x 6month babies (Babies will share a travel cot at this age still)
So there you have it - Car needs to change, caravan needs to change and the house went on the market Friday!
Thanks in advance for any recommendations
