They haven't approved other ISOFIX baby seats, because they want everyone to buy theirs!

WARNING - do not fit any other ISOFIX system into your MINI other than a BMW one - I wanted to buy a britax seat with ISOFIX connection, but Britax told me that it would fit, but they could'nt approve it as BMW have not approved any other seat in the car apart from there own. The short of it is, if you put an un approved seat into your vehicle it will invalidate the the insurance in the event of a claim.

The only seat Britax approved for the MINI was the renaissance. I dont know about the other companies, but be weary of ISOFIX with other makes apart from BMW.
