Baby Seats

[shami]

Thanks for the input guys. I think i've sorted out the baby seat issue...now onto the other stuff

Its not going in my golf, thats siting in my driveway going nowhere. Its going into my wifes car, which, well i won't even mention what it is...

Just out of interest guys can anyone tell me how well a backward facing car seat fits in a MK6 GTI?

My wife has a MK4 golf and when we went to look at buying car seats yesterday we did a trial run to check how it fits. Sure enough it fitted in the back but it meant the front passenger seat had to go so far forward neither my wife or I could fit in the seat.

Interested to know how others have dealt with this predicament and whether the Mk6 interior dimensions are bigger/more accomodating than the Mk4

I've got my heart set on a Mk6 GTI as my new company car and need to be able to look after my little one that's due late Feb. Safe'N'Sounds Infant capsule I was unaware of and I'll have to have a look into. (Cheers Dion M)

Goldy did you get anywhere in your research. We have a Safe'N'Sound Compaq Deluxe in our old Pulsar and its got the same problem of forcing the front passenger right forward. I am seeing depth sizes of 480mm (620mm actually when in backwards facing mode) for it. I am hoping my planned Mk6 will not have this problem so if you have found anything out please let me know.
