well - its a bit tricky, but as long as it's just you, the wife, the doctor and midwife you should be okay, though generally you and the midwife will struggle for leg space, and you should shell out for some good leather cleaner afterwards...

And now for the sensible answer.. Much easier in a C2 as it's got a much deeper boot yes

or, even though i have no experience at all, just spending a few minutes in this forum allows you to answer with:

A cheap buggy fits behind the rear seats quite nicely, if your wife is a snob, you get some expensive brand of pushchair that can fit in the front.

As Rob says, the C2 has more boot space, and our resident Torchy managed a weekend trip with him, wife and two toddlers in a C2.

IIRC britax baby seats fit in the back (forward facing obviously) before then they have to go in the front so you wife will complain about being cramped.


how did i do?

You forgot to mention the durability of the interior vis a vis it's resistance to baby vom.... Still, not bad for a beginner

quiny zap is best bet for a pram as it's the smallest currently on the market (unless things have changed recently)

i have a 5 month old boy and he fitted very well into the rear of my 996tt. as above any c2 will have more storage space in the front. rear facing is fine but sure about front facing. You will have to put the passenger seat as far forward as it will go and have it more upright then usual but your driving so who cares..!!!

this question pops up at least once a month, i suspect simply so that one or more lucky PHers gets the chance to say "quinny" (being an Elizabethan vulgarity pertaining to female genitalia). There must be a rota going - can i join?

never knew that one. There was a young girl named Ginny, who had the most fantastic quinny,if you owned a porker ,you could most definitely stalk her then chuck her out on her hinny.
