rkkwan is right. you say that the luggage will only be 5 small sports bags. Also look at the VW Passat and Audi A4- they are the same as in the US. Also, the Peugeot 407/607 can work. Really, any full size car should be ok for what you say is needed.

Oh dear! We are 5 adults (including two girls aged 13 and 15) leaving for Germany in 4 weeks. We are travelling from Frankfurt to Prague, Cesky Krumlov, St Gilgen and Garmisch-Partenkirchen with luggage. Our travel agent told us the Touran was the car to go for as it was a 7 seater and would therefore cope with the luggage. Reading this thread, it sounds like I will have to have another chat with her about this.

The Touran is a 5-seater that can be transformed to a 7-seater meaning that in the latter case there is no centimeter of luggage room left. IMO the back seats (3 to 5 or 3 to 7) are good for children but too narrow for 3 adults.

Rent roof racks! I like the sound of this! Having never done this before - can one rent them from the hire car company? If so, I assume they should be pre-ordered? What about wet weather? Do they provide a tarp or do we organise that ourselves? Sorry to sound so clueless, but the concept is a little new to me.
