Very silly kids car seat question!

[sjc]

Does anyone use one in their car for the kids, and if so what type,and did they have to make any mods like lengthening the belts or the like? (Have tried doing a search on here but nothing came up)
Thanks in advance, the first I'm sure of many silly questions as my excitement grows!

We have a maxi-cosi car seat which fits nicely with no modifications. One word of caution though, the door handle is in easy reach and our 18 month old daughter is always intrigued to find out what the fun looking lever toy does!

Actech, thanks for that, I think I'll be tieing their hands together then!

I've never had a problem fitting child seats to the Noble. My two are now four and eight and have spent the last two years being strapped into the passenger seats of both M400s and M12s. I now use booster cushion for the eight year old and a seat with an adjustable headrest, behind which the car's belt is threaded so it fits perfectly, for the four year old. I'll check the make and model of the seat I use and e-mail you details tomorrow.

If you have a v.young child who still needs a proper baby seat, which is secured with the car's belts through the frame of the chair (and the child secured with the seat's integral belts) then I'm afraid I've no experience with fitting these into a Noble. The one I used to fit to my four-door car would certainly not fit safely in a Noble because the buckle for the belt needs to be slightly behind the seat to secure it safely, and the Noble's juts out from the side.

I too have used two types of maxi cosi full car seat and the same make of booster cushion with integrated back....no problems, and the kids really need the boosters to see out, let alone the safety issue.

Faster papa, faster...seems to be the normal run of the conversation regardless of whether there is a vehicle directly in front, or a red light...our eldest seems to love the car as much as he loves me...after a few weeks without the car and after I had been away from home for a long weekend I returned only to look on as my son ran to the car to give it a 5 min embrace, passing me by in his sprint for the "car cuddle"

they also enjoy a spell at the wheel for the brief stretch of driveway to the garage.

Kids....just love the noble, and it has been perfectly useable for me with a little passenger on occassion.

I too can find out the seat details if you are interested.

cheers, M

Thanks again guys for your replies, I'm getting closer and closer! Really thought I'd cracked it yesterday but not quite.
P.S. Simon thanks for the quick chat at Goodwood, I can't believe I nearly blagged a run up the hill as a passenger with you on the Saturday...........only to find there was only one supercar run on saturday not two!!
