Hi all,

I'm looking to do a bit of traveling around Europe this summer and am looking to buy a car I can some what convert and make it comfortable enough to sleep in aswell as create a bit of storage space. I'll also be using it as my day to day car whilst not travelling.

I currently own a Ford Focus, which I don't think will be any where near big enough, so I've been looking at either a used Ford Galaxy, or a Chrysler Grand Voyager. I believe I won't need to remove the back seats of either, as they both have foldable tuck in seats. I like the fact that the Grand Voyager has tinted windows for more privacy, but I've heard they're not all that reliable of a car compared to the Ford Galaxy, the Galaxy also appears to have better Mpg.

I've only been driving for just over a year and have never drove on the right side of the road before, so I'm a bit hesitant on such large cars.

So basically I'm after opinions if anybody has had any kind of experience with either, or if anybody has a completely different suggestion.

I'm not looking to spend any more than about £2,000-£3000, so I'll be looking at used with quiet high milage.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Ben
