Hi All,

Does anybody know of any baby seats available that match the classic shape interior.
I've just been on the subaru site and the offical one looks pants.



I was hoping for a more recaro looking seat.

Thanks

Kevin

Hi Mate

Just found this on the recaro website



£199.00


i was after something more in the style of a bucket seat.

assuming you value your kids above the image of your back seat i suggest you check reviews on the recaro BEFORE you buy it.

Also consider your poor little baby in a Scoob. We know what is about to happen with the loud pedal and brakes. Their little neck will pop around a bit. Needs to have good lateral support aswell in a car like this.

i agree with tiggs, i was going for the recaro seat until i read the test report in the auto express. It was not good.

I'd steer clear of the Recaro until the little ones about 2 yrs old.

I did a lot of research & bought 2 of the BebeComfort Iseos seats, which are great


& almost any colour you could want

kevin stanton

cheers for the replies guys,
to be fair i never read the review on the recaro site.
for info the little one has just turned 2 years old.

I now have a couple of the Recaro seats as my daughter is now nearly 3. My only criticism is that she's not keen on the (slide on) side protection head support so she tends to sit with her head slightly foward (until told otherwise !)

yeh i've been told not to buy a recaro as well .
is it ture that you can't put child seats in the frout anymore ?

As far as I'm aware it's only because of airbags on the passenger side, but someone may know better.

stevem2k

you may not want to put them in the driver's side either

kevin some news m8, ive done a rebore on the 22b m8 from 2.2 to a possible 2.4 going from 2 kids to 4 kids missus has just had a scan and it MIGHT be twins

BedHog

I'm sure Kevin won't drive like a maniac with the kids in the back!!

That's (well for me anyway) is strictly for when your on your own lol

JohnnyR6

I thought it was still ok to put a front facing seat in the passenger seat but not a rear facing as this can lead to broken neck for the child if the airbag goes off.

BedHog

The Missus new Beetle lets you turn off the passenger airbag so you can put a rear facing baby seat there. Nice feature. (Also you need to use the ignition key to turn it off, and a warning light stays on so it can't be done by accident)
