Hi Muzbury

I installed a Convertable one from Safe and Sound - I think it was called a Platinum.

Faces the rear for when they're tiny and then turns around at around six months. These ones last from birth to about 4 or 5 years old depending on size.

We went with the Safe and Sound because it was like a cocoon. And the padding could be removed as my boys grew.

Cheers

Personally I reckon a smallish manger fixed to the seat with race tape should do the trick as I know he won't be allowed out of the driveway in the 105 till he's 27. I'd also recommend a Waeco for keeping the premix formula cold and the baby buggy should be shod with Coopers, the AT I reckon rather than the ST. Probably an external pressure monitoring system on the nappy. Will you need a winch and don't forget to lower the tyre pressures when heading over the bark garden and the driveway scoria in the pram.

and congratulations by the way...poppy. You may shout the bar at the geographical centre of Vic come June!
