Hello to all! have been on the site for a few weeks now, keep forgetting to say hello in here. Excellent site for the petrolheads among us! I drive an '04 BMW 325 sport coupe, love the thing, and am looking to upgrade to an M3 or 911 in the near future, removing any chance I might have had of owning a house. That said the back seats are pretty big in the BM...

Yep, immediate insertion of a roll-cage is the only sure fire method of preventing baby seats from growing in there...

And welcome!

Why does that sound like you've already talked yourself into it being ok to have a baby seat in a 2-seater .

Was watching TopGear on sunday and they made a good point, with the new EU rules about booster seats the back seats in 2+2 cars are now pretty useless, ya'd never fit a booster seat or adult in em!! confused

That's bollox ... Believe me .. I have a 6 and a 3 year old , one in a baby seat the other in a booster seat.

Mind you , it does play on my mind that I can't afford to put on any weight!!

The wife , two kids and I went on a weekend break to Kilkenny in the 996 recently .. Plenty of room I tells ya.

Listen after seeing it and taking pictures I knew there and then i would have my leverage to prove to herself how "practical" a Ferarri will be when it comes to me being able to afford one. No doubt by the time i can afford one, there will be sprogs. Either that or I'll be leading a swauve playboy lifestyle!yesthumbup

At the moment there is a two seater outside, and it will NEVER have a baby seat in it! EVER! Not even once! Ever! As you can see, theres no budging on that! rolleyes

You can get a baby seat for a Cerb.

TVR even supplied one.

So there's another option for your next car.

No.

I got it off a guy in Pembrokeshire.

He had it advertised on PH but doesn't post here I think.

Why do you ask?

Ah, I see now.

I just had a look at his profile page.

No, his was not on the market when I got mine.

That one went for pretty reasonable money in the end, a quick sale as far as I recall.
