My wife is petite and pretty agile. When she's in the 3rd row she can play with the kids in front of her. (They're still really young and prone to whining on a drive)

Our Au pair is pretty tall for the back seats and has only been driving for a year so we use each time we go out in the car as a family, as an opportunity for her to gain road experience.

That said, I'd love a rally navigator. Last Tuesday, my wife sent me wrong directions for this rock concert that both kids were to go to. (For those that care, check out Caspar Babypants on YouTube) I had to do some enthusiastic driving in the Range Rover Classic to get us there on time. (By spirited I mean heads hitting the headliner as the car gets airborne) Hopefully, she will not emulate this type of reckless behaviour.

XC90 owner here as well. XC90, with third row up, has substantially more space than LR4 with third row seats. Sadly, for us, the XC90 is the better choice right now--so it gets a lot more road time.

Clarkson on Top Gear put it well. Talking about the LR3 (close enough): "As a machine it's amazing, but for the family, the XC90 is better."

Our family solution is having an XC90 and an LR4
