Law regarding 3 kids in the back....

I have a little Ford Fiesta and my hubby has a normal 4 door saloon.

We have a DD, 6 and a DS, 4 both of which are at the moment in high backed boosters.
Am considering having number 3 but am left wondering about the laws regarding car seats.
I read somewhere that my DD would be OK to sit in the middle of the back seat without a car seat as long as the other 2 younger kids obviously have appropriate car seats either side of her....is this true?

I really don't think I'd get 3 across the back of my car.....might have to have a practice lol! Thanks....

You could get a Multimac 1000 plus a Minimac seat for the baby (at £1100 for the Multimac and £250 for the Minimac it might be cheaper to buy a new car, though ).

Although someone here claims that a friend of hers fits three seats in the back of a Fiesta...
