Get the maxi cosi family fit base mate, fits in my '10 model, and will do the first seat we have (maxi cosi pebble) and will also do the next seat up MY10 HSE 3.0 TDV6 : Santorini Black : Ebony Interior w/Anigre wood : Privacy Glass (total) : Sunroof : Sidesteps : Hybrid TV : Detachable Tow Kit : Spare Wheel Cover : 22" Dished Supersports

Just fitted a maxi cosi cabrio. Great. TDV8 HSE, Remap (+45 BHP + 100 Nm), Taylored sport exhaust system by Pipe Werx
20" HST alloys, Privacy glass, Side steps, Xenon Adaptive Lighting, Adaptive cruise control

If you can, get yourself along to your local ROSPA child seat fitting centre.

You'd be amazed how many car seats are fitted incorrectly, even ISOfix ones.
They offer the service for free and will try a number of seats to tell you which ones fit the best.
I know if seems a pain, but we did it for each car we had and it gave great piece of mind that the seats were fitted correctly  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i
MERCEDES GL350 - Metallic Navy Blue w/Grey interior

GOING: BMW F31 335D MSport+ xDrive Touring
GONE: Land Rover Discovery 4 HSE - Stornaway Grey w/Black Interior (wish we'd kept it )
GONE: BMW F10 520D MSport - Carbon Black
GONE:MY12 RRS SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ivory/Grand Black Privacy glass

I would echo the above. While test driving different cars looking for a second car for the wife, we popped to the place where we had ordered our car seats/pushchair etc from to see if the seat would fit in the car we were testing. The salesman had left their seat fitted in the back, and the advisor insisted that he refit the salesmans seat (who wasnt with us) before we left as it was unsafe. 10 second job and it was secured properly.

We went for the britax baby seat after looking at the demonstrations between the various models. The shop also took both model apart, so you could see the various impact protection and structure of each seat to demonstrate the differences too. They stock and sell both britax and maxi-cosy so had no particular axe to grind. It was interesting to see the various ones demonstrated and the inner workings/design of them.

The place we went to was called Stork Talk in Ilkeston if anyone is interested. RRS 3.0D HSE 11MY - Fuji White, a few extras.
