Can you recommend a car to fit three booster seats?

Hiya,

I need to get a car that will fit three booster seats. I currently drive a 2004 Renault Senenic so need to update. I've got about €9,000 plus whatever I get on a trade in. Can you recommend one?

What car will take three children in the back?

Hi, I'm looking to buy a new family car that will take three seats in the back easily. Not looking for a seven seater or so, just something that will take all three kids in the back in comfort - both theirs and also easy to get the seats in - ages 4 1/2, 3 and newborn.

How do I fit three child seats in the back of my car?

Third child on the way, eldest child is in full-size booster seat, what cars will fit three across? Ford says its cars can but you need a degree in engineering to fit them. I have discussed this question with a number of car seat retailers who all lean toward a seven seater.

Legality of booster seat in middle of rear?

Hi Guys,

What is the deal with legislation in connection with seat belts in the middle of the back seat? Are children legally okay to be strapped in the middle on a booster if there is only a lap belt and not a full belt?

Asking as number three is due for August - number two and three will need a full belt for their car seats so number one will be bumped into the middle.

Thanks
