Can you recommend a child friendly car?

I want to replace my Ford Focus diesel. We do about 10,000 miles annually and the car needs to be about the same size to fit in our garage. Comfort and ease of access are important and the car will also need to accommodate three or four child seats for grandchildren. My budget is £8000 to £10,000, what do you suggest?

Four child seats means three across the back and three won't fit across the back of most hatchbacks, but they will across the back of a Peugeot 308SW or a Citroen C4 Picasso, because these have three separate rear seats.
