Car seat to fit new model mini?

Having moved DD to a forward facing seat, it's now not practical to move the whole shebang from car to car - anyone recommend a seat for a 2 year old that'll fit a BMW mini?

My Dad has a new mini and both my Britax premiere something or other ( ) and this (the spare seat that he keeps at his house) fit in absolutely fine.

The main problem is as it is two door car, it is difficult to actually get the thing in the car and also a faff to fit with a seat belt (these two seats are not isofix). I'm not sure how isofix works, but a car seat with it might be easier to actually fit. Once they are in though, they are fine!

thanks everyone! Ladyem, yes I imagine all kinds of contortions are required to get the blimmin' thing in in the first place...
