No probs mate. Just helps when people are trying to get the information back to you.

I assume you want a bus with middle seat? That would make a proper bus 8 seater. The middle seat is minutes out or in to allow for 5 or 8 seats, depending on the extra room required for things like prams.

In my opinion and experience, be ready for $5000 minimum to get something reliable as you are taking the kids around, and safety and reliability does mean something.

a five seater would be ok ( i only have two kids) a camper would be good as well

My choice would be a 74-78 5 seater with a rear seat that has been changed to a fold out camp bed/seat That would give you the option of three extra seats in the back when driving, and a double bed when parking. Towing the small weight would be do able, but you would want a good strong 1800cc or 2 litre engine with good condition disc brakes up front.
