Is this possible?? I have been looking at a new carseat for the baby, and most of the ones that fit my car can not be fitted in the 2 rear seats, so I guess DS will have to go in the back. Atm I have 3 hi-liners in the middle row. How does everyone else do it??

We have a stage 2 car baby seat in one of the rear seats or have had a hi-liner or a booster seat in there in the past with three hi liners in the back.

I have to have a stage 0 or stage 0+ for the baby though, along with the 3 hi-liners, was looking at the britax First Class SI, but will it fit with 2 hi-liners in the car too??

Don't know about your Zafira, but mine only has a lap belt in the middle.
Also cannot turn off the passanger airbag.
So I fill up all the seats & get an umbrella fold buggy in the boot. But no idea where you can put the wheelchair.

Can the babyseat be used with just a lapbelt? Then that go in the middle of the middle row, with the two highliners on either side (hope they are narrow). Then the other highliner in the back row and the wheelchair in the other half of the boot.

Or possibly one of the highliners in the front with the seat as far back as possible.

I found halfords in Harlow, really helpful when we were getting new car seats (I assume you line near misdee who is in WGC?).
We ended up taking half their stock down to the car & testing children & seats to make sure that we got the best combination.
Also they pricematched ToysRUs so check there prices out first (nab one of those tickets you are supposed to take to buy the bigger items). ToysRUs is very close to Halfords, so let me know if you want better directions
