Re: One more!

That's interesting I thought being a SC it would be quite poor on the old mpg but I only get 230 to 280 miles out of mine depending on how I drive and ive just got a normal 1.6.

Will a baby/child seat fit in a MR2 MK1 and is it legal?

Hi there I was just wondering if a baby/child seat will fit in a MR2 MK1 and is it legal? I no its not probably the best idea in the world but it would only be temporary thing before I will be getting another car?
Thanks Beki
