Mum & Dad have two Greyhounds. Their car is a VW Touran 7 seater. The floor space when the middle row is folded is supposedly the perfect shape and size for the dogs. It seems there are half decent examples out there from £1500.
Do you have any photos - is this on top of the folded seats? I imagine they stand up in the middle, and the seats fold completely flat?
I haven't, but I'll text Mum and ask her to send a photo of how they've configured it, then post up. I'm sure it's not on top of the folded seats, rather in the increased footwell space.

Just heard back. My mistake, it was their car before the VW they had that set up, a Mitsubishi Space Wagon. In the Touran they use it as a 5 seater, with loads of boot room for them accordingly.

Thank you for getting back to me. I had a google of the inside of Touran to try and work it out. It still sounds like a good set-up, as they have tall boots, definitely, on the list.

They're not exiting, but his has proven to be well made, totally reliable, and very roomy.

A few recommendations. These are no older than 2010. The Exeo is basically an A4 Avant just rebadged.
