Anyone using Group2&3 child seats in a WRX?
 

My boy is in a Group1 Iseos TT seat at he mo, and although just coming up to 2yrs old it feels too small for him (Group1 is meant to be upto 4yrs old). Anyway, after doing research I am either going to get the Jane F1 Indy Racing Isofix or the Graco Rally Sport.

I hate the fact that the Group1 seat is so bulky it means his feet can reach the back of the front seats - he has to go on the passenger side (I have my chair right back) and this means the passenger seat is so far forward anyone getting in has their knees around their ears.

So - does anyone have either of these seats? Or if they use a different one for say 3yr olds (where their legs can't bend to the footwell), do the seats fit so no one is booting you in the back every 5 mins?

I really want the Isofix one but I know it is going to be more bulky than the Graco so am worried about the back pains that the front seat passengers will get from the abuse my boy can dish out.

Any comments/advice much appreciated.

I should probably add that I can't find the F1 Indy in any shops nearby so I can scope it out :(

We went for the Britax Isofix one. Was best available (which?) and got great reviews everywhere. Think it was £200 from MCare.

Cheers Gaz - is that the Brtiax Evolva? It is £119 now in MCare. What age nippers do you have in it? Main thing for me is the lack of space for his legs behind the front seats.

Just had a lOOk at it's this one:
Britax Childcare

She has had it for about 6m and she's now 2 1/4 yrs old. Is fine. And she's no shorty either.

Fair play. That is a Group1 seat (>18KGs) - same as the one he already has. I want to try him in the next stage ones cos getting him in and out is a right chore with limited space (he is tall and weighs a ton!).

Thanks for putting the Britax idea in my head though :thumb: - seems this Evolva jobby is a new Group2&3 isofix chair. Thought the F1 Indy was the only option. Now I can pop down MCare and check out the fittings. :luxhello:

Yeah sorry, i thought it was Group2, as it's the second seat, first was the carry thingy.

At least you got some more info. :)

Cheers - found it for £105 delivered. Seems it is new out and not many places have it yet. MCare are turd as usual when something isn't in stock so used the good old t'internet search.

We've just gone to the Graco Rallysport after looking at many seats as my daughter has outgrown hers. V nice bit of kit, properly padded and stable with good neck/head support.
