New Toy For Boy But...

[wildrnes]

ok dad has been really good and got the boy a really trick car seat

a concord trimax in ebony

it matches the lex interior

bot the little sod can still kick 7 colours of cra# out of the back of the seat

i have a choice

an axe (leg removal)

a roof rack (boy on top)

or some way to protect the seat ?

any ideas and where from

[Dunkie]

lol I had this when I took my daughter to blue planet, she kicked the poop out of the drivers seat lol! (she is 18 months old)

I was thinking about one of those back seat storage "thingies" that you can store all sorts of stuff in, they are black and so should look okish with my black interior.

Has the is200 got a diagonal shoulder middle belt if so can u put him in that ,I to had this problem i have 2 of the little cherubs and in the end i had to sell car(audi A4) and buy one with more leg room.it seems to get better as they get bigger as their legs bend over the seat instead of sticking straight out.

How about one of these - it's clear plastic so won't look naff with the interior:

IF this was a poll- i'd vote for the roof-rack :D

Gets them out in the fresh air-BLESS!

why dont you make him lie down across the seat in the back and strap him in with all seat belts. arms legs and anything else is secure.

How about buying him his own Lexus to play with? On the subject of car seats, any tips for stopping them permanently marking the leather? We're expecting our first little demon in April (OH MY *** only 6 weeks and I haven't finished decorating the nursery)

We've ordered a Britax RockaTot deluxe cos it did sehr gut in the German side and front impact tests and did best in the Which! report. Not a problem in Mummies Madza with cloth seats, but in Daddies (flipping heck...6 weeks) car with nice leather I'm going to have to be careful.

[wildrnes]

he has his own lex mate

not got a clue abot keeping the leather ok tho i just cleen and condition the leather and take the seat out a lot

oh and you cant put a child in the centre seat cos of the camber of the seat (it rolls about too much)

[leedsunited]

You lot need to get out more!!

On a serious note has anybody used the ISO Fix child seat fittings in the back of the 200.

[wildrnes]

mine hasnt got em :(

now been lookin at the seat protector thingy and realised we have all the gear at work to make em

so anyone want a pvc seat protector perhaps with a lex logo or a team lex logo (steve)

[Claire G]

YEah, I'd be up for getting one - got to be better than the blue and yellow one that I have at the moment

[leedsunited]

Yeah Id be up for one, does it come in sick and crumbled Farleys rusk print?

[Zee007]

I'll have one for when Hartys in the back...........

Get an offcut of some nice nursery print fabric and just pop it under the seat - that's what I did.

I still have the back seat completely covered with a knights-on-horseback print now he's 10. The upholstery underneath is immaculate, but the floor - now that's another matter entirely.......

You take your kids out in the LEX?..................

There are three options if you HAVE to take them........

1)buy a second car to ferry them round in

(should'nt be in a LEX ti'll there at least 15)

2)Enrol them in yoga classes:

when their in the car,wrap legs around back of neck

3)Good old gaffer tape

[Claire G]

Or buy a roof-rack - fresh air does them good ;)

[leedsunited]

How easy its it to fit a tow bar to the 200se.

A chair screwed to a flat bed trailer would be ideal!!!!
