Extended Rear Facing in BMW E60? Sloping Seats!

[mozza42]

Seems the safest way to transport our 9mth old little one is in a rear facing seat...

Problem is the rear seats in my car are at a rather steep angle; most seats I've tried leave the backrest at 25 degrees at full recline. Measured up for a Klippan triofix recline but needs 840mm seat back to seat back so wouldn't fit.

I'm starting to think that nothing will fit and am considering a Volvo... Would really rather not change though!

Anyone with any experience with mine, or similar cars? Anyone in the trade and know of new models?

Just get a front facing seat

I don't get this rear facing seat stuff.

Yes I can see some benefit, should you be hit on the front. But not so much any other crash scenario.

Then the child can't see you, or ahead. Then the suggestion that changing cars is the answer.....

Personally I'd change the seat.
