When we had kids, we had to graduate to a bigger vehicle to haul car seats around - they do fit in the back of this two-door hatchback. However, getting the seats/kids in and out is not fun. If you have kids that can get in and buckle themselves, it would be no problem.
It also has a suprising amount of trunk space. My husband, friend, and I, would all go play golf weekly and packed our three good-sized sets of clubs in the back - along with my husbands three-wheel push cart.
I do agree the vehicle has some road noise - I only notice it on the freeway, and after driving cars no newer than the late 1980's, it does not seem very loud to me. I've driven in snow and on ice - and although it can feel quite diminutive compared to the other vehicles on the road, I felt better in that little frontwheel drive car than in our large truck, in which the back end was always coming around.
We plan on keeping the vehicle for a long time. Maybe it will be a first car when our kids get older! :)
