Travel system for Skoda Fabia VRS

Hi guys, I'm expecting my first and I'm looking for advise about travel systems. We have a 2004 Fabia VRS and I don't know where to start! Does anyone know what travel system car seat will fit in the back whilst allowing the rest to fit in the boot? Any advise is much appreciated.

I fitted the Graco with the base in a Fabia just last week! It has "sticky out" seatbelt buckles which causes a bit of a problem with other manufacturers bases.

Do you have ISOfix? (little hooks in the back/base of the seat where your bum goes!) If so you can get an ISOfix base and seat, which really opens up the possibilities although I would personally recommend the Britax

We've got a VRS and tbh the boot isn't good. We had a Graco Mirage which fitted the rear seat quite comfortably when attached with belt only but we found it a problem when we needed 2 ff seats (DH is 6ft+ and needs the seat fully back).

We've currently got DD2 rear passenger side and DD1 in booster in front passenger seat - not ideal but works.
I'd probably go for the smallest stroller that you could use from birth.
