Advantages: Good fuel economy, cheap car tax

Disadvantages: Boot could be a bit small

We are thinking of buying a new car, but can't afford a big one not that we could afford to run it anyway with the price of petrol. We have a '98 'E' reg Micra 1.0L which is just about on its' last legs bless it! Because the current one has lasted so long we hope to buy another Micra, perhaps an 'L' or 'M' reg.
The only thing is, as we now have an 18 month old and all of her junk to cart around whenever we go anywhere, I was wondering if the boot would be big enough? Is it the same size as the old model or smaller? Do the rear seats split?
Any advice would be gratefully appreciated.
