My wife used to use my db9 on the school runs.. two of them in the back, One in a cabrio car seat ( 2 Year Old)..6 year old in normal seat behind driver( The seats are tight and are like child seats anyway... was fine. no one could sit in the front passenger seat though because the cabrio sticks out a bit..

Er, I've used the cabriofix a couple of times and the passenger seat had to be on its front stops with the back rest vertical. No way could it fit behind the driver.

I now have a Rodi XR for the four year old and a Britax Duofix for the fifteen month old. When i put the Duofix behind me, I have to sit rather further forward than normal. It's not a problem, but it's not as comfortable as my normal driving position (I'm 6.2").

Fact, With car seat for < 2 years old. No one can sit in passenger seat unless ur 3ft.

For a child 4 years + the car is fine.

I've got it worked out so that I can live with my fifteen month old behind me in the DuoFix. He does hacve to sith cross-legged though as my backrest touches his seat.

How old is the baby, OP? Can you just wait a few months?

Baby is nearly 9 months , so will be in Cabriofix for a fair while yet , Its looking likely that I will have to bite the DB9 bullet for a while ,
