we had all sorts of bother getting our rear facing seat to fit in Our BMW 3 series. BMW seat belts where too short!! Problem is they take up double the room as a forward seat!.

We put off getting a MINI until the babe was old enough to go forward facing & also until she could walk therefor not having to worry about pushchair!! coz they dont fit in the boot either!

I would definately use the BMW rear facing seat. If its designed for the car! after all if it saves the kiddies life in an accident surely it's worth the extra bucks!!

Although now we are forward facing with our little one we have gone for Britax reniesance.

Only order ISOFIX if you plan to use BMW seat as no other seat is approved to use MINI ISOFIX and invalidates insurance.
