Literally picked up our kombi at the weekend for this purpose. Came from a Volvo XC90, the van is way more practical. We have a SWB as we needed to be able to park it and drive it like it's not really a van. A couple of local runs confirms I can easily get a couple of bikes in the back (diagonally) with loads of room for other stuff. For long summer camping trips we'll still use the tow bar rack.

How many kids?
Reason being is you may struggle with enduro bike unless..........
Two kids, you and the Mrs:- single captains chairs up front then swap the rear seating for three individual chairs. That way two kids in the back on the outside two chairs, remove the middle one and the enduro will roll in between them and you could possible use the QR floor brackets for the chair to form some kind of tie down for the bike wheel.
Three kids, you and the Mrs:- bench seat up front for you, the wife and one kid, same set up in the back as before.
Four kids, you and the Mrs:- at least you've had fun along the way. Buy a trailer (to put the kids in obviously), so the bike can go in the van!!!!
Two kids but only me in the van when the dirt bike is in there so thinking removing rear seat row for that?
Bicycles different two adults and two kids plus four bikes…
