I bought this seat new as a spare for the third car (already had one and was very impressed so bought this second one) but can honestly say that its been used about 2 times for very short journeys hence condition is like new. Cost me £195. Has an audio input for an MP3 player with built-in...

Hi, I'm after a set of MB rear child seats for the W211 estate. The ones that pop up for kids but fold back down for adults. Cheers

Anyone any thoughts/experience on what is appropriate leg room for a rear fixed child seat. Junior B is now coming up to 2 and although he's quite dinky for his age, his feet will sit flat on the back of the passenger seat in front with it pretty much fully forward (not great for Mrs B). Its...

I'm trying to see if that car seat I've got (Mamas & Papas Pro Tech) is also compatible with my dad's C180 (2004). I know it's fine in mine because I don't have airbags in the rear, but my dad's car does - does this mean I need an official MB seat, or do you only have to disable airbags when a...

Hi I've just bought an 04 A160 for the purpose of carting 3 children around, aged 5, 3 and 1. Has anybody been able to fit 3 child seats across the back, and if so which ones did you use? Thanks v much

Our older son is just coming upto 3yrs old. He is confidently whizzing around on an Early Rider balance bike & now needs a proper bike with pedals (but not stabilisers (which I do realise are easily removable). I am a keen cyclist, so do not want any old tat for him! I am struggling to find any...

Has anyone fitted a non - mercedes child seat in a c class 220cdi as local dealership insist on a mercedes seat as it has a sensor in it to de-activate side airbags. Bottom line is child safety but I do get a bit annoyed when some dealers start taking advantage. Anyone know where I can get...

Ok, I've bought a 320ML and now need either the ASCR sensor or a baby / child seat equipped with the sensor to relocate the sensor in my daughter's Recaro seat. (Mercedes Benz Automatic Child Seat Recognition System [ACSR], which automatically disables the front passenger seat airbag when the...

Yesterday I had the passenger airbag light coming on for 5-10 mins and off for 5 mins or so. (I had the indication next to the gearbox light up and the SRS indication in the dashboard) however no malfunction is logged in to the indash display. I think this is not a fault ... as this is meant to...

Me again, I have twins who both sit on child seats - but I'm worried about my leather. Is there anything you can recommend that I can put under their chairs which will save the leather from marking? I think in time it's possible that their chairs might dent the leather - especially as they get...
