Owners with baby's

[Dodson]

Went and picked our new pram up today,came in 3 big boxes so had to put seats down to get them all in .

So we got home put it all together had a quick play with it and then went in for the trial fit.....

Realised that everytime i have to have the pram in the boot,the parcel shelf will have to be removed as both doesnt fit!

Gutted!

Anyone else have the same problems or not?

Its one of those (bloody expensive) 3-1 silvercross things!

mammas and pappas fit easily enough, even went into zoes ka, were now using a quinny zap (had also got a buzz (multi one) the zap is really useful after 9 months though for them once they start to grow as its only a 1 position buggy.

Easy do what me and the wife are doing, sell her mini and buy an Audi A2. Lets hope it fits.

We had one of the big expensive mammas and pappas ones(few years ago now), what a pain in the ar$e, the wife hated it only used it half a dozen times then bought a little mclaren buggy that you can use from birth which was brilliant

Mountain Buggy Terrain fits. Tough & light. Quite long when folded but just fits in a Leon boot

We've just had a baby! Isobel Niamh born a week ago(10/03) / and we have a Bebecar M City and it fits really well in the boot when folded up, although the infant seat is a tight fit on the back seat but the little one seems OK, just have take it easy on the old accelerator... (no more 6th gear!)

we bought a new push chair for ella now she's bigger(2) put the box and the pram in the octy boot ,still room for a months groceries

 

[tris]

we got ours from toys r us and it just fits

 

[slimjim]

Is there a reason you want the parcel shelf in all the time?

Same "kind" of thing, but the my dog guard (oem) fits in the bit where the parcel shelf does, and as I need the guard in all the time, the parcel shelf is in the loft.

Mind you, I have 40% tint on the rear so you have to get close to see what's in the boot.

Our mamas and papas pram fits with a mild bit of jiggery pokery as long as nothing else is in the boot,and congrats to the AOS family on your new addition...

wen my lil girl was born had a big old 3 in 1 pram even fitted in my rs lol so the cupra r boot swallowed it but after 6 months just got a maclaren city walker buggy much better (now she is 3 we have a recaro baby seat and no buggy woohoo)

 

[Matt Cupra R]

We have a three wheeler thing and I was impressed how big the boot is in the LCR. First car we have had where we don't need to take the wheels off. We had a BMW 330 before and that was like the Krypton Factor trying to get it in there.

Baby recarro is next on my mod list

 

[cordobabrendy]

[Dodson]

we have one as well.only 1 niggle, it means the seat its behind has to be pretty far forward(in my VRS,dunno about the leon.tighten it up and i challenge anyone to move it once its in place.good bit of kit.weight and age restrictions apply to baby seats btw

 

[rst_cupra_r]

i jst got rid off the recaro bay seat after 1 week kept movingdidnt feel safe got this lil beauty instead:

think it looks good as the lcr seat have bit of red in them lol she loves it though and is more supportive

 

[Jukesy]

Or do what I did last week having had a new baby for 12 weeks. Flog the LCR and buy an Audi S6 instead.

Just too much quart into pint pot for my liking!

something like this though ours (weve got one in the leon and one in the ka) have white writing which blends in a little better and the cloth is softer all over (kinda like suade)
