Why not just get some roof bars, box and a bike mount? £2-300 will get you that lot and once setup, take minutes to fit and take off.

It's what I did rather than trying to find a car that doesn't exist.

Might not satisfy the reliability aspect but by the time you've, sorry your friend, has haggled down to £3000 you can have seven seats of awesomeness in the form of a 2002 Kia Sedona diesel.
