Anyone with a Megane 250/265/275 use it for baby transport?

I'm considering one but I need to be able to get a 1yr old in and out without too much bother. The child seat I'll be using is front facing. The Megane won't be our main family car but I will be doing the nursery run a couple of times a week.

I currently have a 3 door Clio and think its do-able even with that (I've tried it!) so I'm just looking for confirmation here.

I'm also curious about Recaros' vs standard seats as far as access into the rear (although I'm not even looking at cars without Recaros' so perhaps I don't want to hear it!)

I think I understand the Stage 1/2/3 business.....

My daughter is 10 months old so she can sit in forward facing seats. Although the seat we have for our main car keeps her rear facing until she gets bigger (as per current best practice/ soon to be EU law I believe). I'll only be using my car for collecting from nursery and other short trips.

My plan to get her in and out was to climb into empty back seat holding her, and then lift into car seat. Seemed to work OK on my Clio!
