Hi,
does anybody have any pictures of the boot space available in the Doblo Family? I'm interested in seeing 3rd row seats in place, and 3rd row seats folded up.

The brochure seems a bit shy on this point apart from the cutaway side view.

Any help appreciated.

Haven't got any pics at the moment but the boot is tiny. If you get a family model, you'll need some roof bars and a roof box aswell.

I've got a couple of pics now

As you can see, there's not much room with the seats in use, enough for a weekly shop at the supermarket but that's about it.

With the seats folded it doesn't get alot better, you need to remove them to get full use of the space but this is difficult as it's a bench seat and they're heavy.
Don't want to put you off as it's a brilliant car and other MPVs aren't much better for rear space. We've got 4 kids so we needed at least a 6 seater and I didn't like the seating arrangement in the multipla so we went for the Dobbie and I've been really pleased with it so far, they're brilliant to drive, loads of power and they handle nicely for such a tall car too.

Many thanks for the pics Rich. They show just what I needed to know. I like the look of the Doblo but I don't think it's going to meet my needs unfortunately.

If they extended the rear by 12 inches or so on the Family!!

There does seem to be a long wheel base Doblo but I haven't seen one in the Family version. I wish they did make a 7 seater with this body, it would be perfect.

That's interesting Rich. I was having a discussion in broken Spanglish with a Fiat dealer in Spain. He reckoned the Doblo Family was longer wheelbase. When I looked at the brochures I thought he was bullsh**ing, but maybe they do have a stretched version.

I'll keep my eyes peeled next time I'm over.

If I could get the LWB and 4x4 combined, that would do what I want!

A setup like this might be ok. I think this is the 4x4 version, the Adventure.
It's not LWB but you'd get the extra space with the roofbox.
