MaxiCosi CabrioFix. Fits various different pushchairs, as well as being one of the more compact seats for the car. Won't take you much beyond 12 months though.

The best seat around, did my two well, both my son and daughter first trips in a car was in the Aston Martin in a Cabriofix. You will find the ISOFIX bars by digging around in the seat crack, I seem to think they are all fitted with them, they are just more exposed if they are down as "fitted"...or perhaps I am getting confused with Beemers..

Mine doesn't have ISOFIX. The ISOFIX ones, as well as the bars, have the extra anchorage point at the bottom of the rear of the passenger seat.

You're joking, well obviously not!!! That makes me more than slightly annoyed.
Do you know how it was specified from the factory?
(just to clarify, the passenger seat is electronically adjustable as well as the drivers?)

There might be some confusion here...

My passenger seat (06 vantage) is electrically adjustable, forwards and backwards...BUT... No height adjustment..
Seat has isofix points, and airbag switch...

If I remember correctly, my manual says that AM don't fit isofix to any seats that also have height adjustment...

Correct. Early cars were either ISOFIX (no height adjustment) and the ability to disable the airbag, or full adjustable seats, no ISOFIX and no airbag disable switch.
Looks like AM altered it on later models (can't be bothered to get Grant's book out smile to check which year) to be able to disable the airbag on all cars.

Yes, factory-specified. Passenger seat is electrically adjustable and has memory, but no ISOFiX - I was told it wasn't available. That annoyed me.
