Hi
Am looking to purchase an S2 exige, however as the father of a 3 year old does anyone know if baby seat / booster seat can be fitted to the exige comfortably / safely?
Wont be main means of transport however would save hassle if possible
Thanks in advance!
Not sure where you are based.
It does depend on the baby seat though.
However most Mothercare stores will trial fit a seat for you, I’ve used one in the Exige (S1) a few times (always a laugh seeing the reaction in parent and child parking .
If you are Midlands based then there is a great shop called Baby equipment complete (it’s also the url if you leave the spaces out) who have a hugh range and can help you try them out.
Does depend if you have a harness and no lap belt (rear in an S2). No baby seats are approved for harnesses, but a booster would probably be fine (I haven’t tried, kids too young currently, but make sure the lap belt of a harness goes across the lap and not stomach).
I use a Recaro Start, even with the harness, it was the only thing I was happy was safe with that configuration.
It can be a bit noisy for very little peeps.
Enjoy!

I too have a three year old and his seat sits fantastically in the passenger seat. He thoroughly enjoys his occassional runs in the Exige. Enjoy some quality time

do you know the make of car seat?
Was through yesterday, really liked the car so now just need to bottom out whether to go for the performance or touring spec!
If you’re going to track it (and that’s where its heart is), the perf pack has twin oil coolers which are a good idea.

And the recaro start arrived today!
Now the difficult bit… waiting!

Not sure the organisers would let you out on track with a baby seat in the car
It’s more the baby they get funny about.
