So we have recently had a child and due to that Mrs Stumpage has upgraded her 206 to a bigger car. So my current Saab 95 Aero spends it time with just me in going to and from work. So Mrs Stumpage points this out and says that we need to get a cheaper car to run than the Saab, so...........

I buy myself an MX5 VT sport!!!!! Yep when most people are getting rid of the sports car for a load lugger when the little one arrives I go and buy a 2 seater. Love it, just need to source the car seat that works with the airbag now. he he

PS. Pick it up next Saturday and can't wait!!

Congratulations! Piccies please!

I dont think you can put any car seat in with an airbag that cant be diactivated?

We won't be too surprised, then, when you post again on this topic, in a couple of weeks time, saying, "Oh woe is me 'cus I have to sell my precious two-seater and buy a diesel espace ... or get a divorce..."

The airbag can be deactivated as long as I get a mazda car seat with the transponder in. (I did do one thing sensible and checked it out first). I'll post pics when I've picked it up.

I get people all the time asking if the Supe is going because Mel has a bun in the oven. I always say no, but the postman-pat wagon could be replaced instead.

Mel has a bun in the oven?
