Default Car Seat?

I'm currently driving a 14GX SUV and am looking to sell it and get a RC-F. We have a 2 year old and am wondering is the RC manageable as a daily driver with a car seat or am I just kidding my self. I need to at least be able to pick up from day care once or twice a week.

Unless your kid is in a booster seat, then there is no way you can fit something that big in the backseat. There are ISOfix anchors, but good luck getting back there to secure the seat. Back strain might become a problem when you have to help buckle the kid in. Go into the dealer and try it out. You'll see how little room there is to work with. So, I'd suggest either waiting until kid is older and doesn't need a car seat, or go for the new GSF.

Although I don't own the RC (yet) I have driven it as well as looked at it on a couple occasions which included sitting in all the seats. Being familiar with the car seat thing I would say it would be pretty difficult to pull off with the RC. My daughter is now 11 and I even wondered how well the back seat will work! I think trying to bend over to do anything with a car seat would be a pain with this car!
