... my daughters are 9 & 12 though .

Wife won't drive it & can't say the kids love it either

.. They prefer the 5 series diesel

Wow.

Thats dedication. 88 miles a day!

Private school?

That puts my mind at ease as it would be a second occasional car but its still a tiny bit selfish..ah well.

However there is an anomaly, if you disconnect the passenger air-bag or have it disconnected, then the adult passenger is no longer protected, should you have an accident - your stuffed!

The car is no longer as per manufactured, an unauthorised modification has been carried out. Conclusion children go in the back for everyone's safety.

Yep. I will just put them in the back.

yes .. so our own fault really , but we're in the country so are used to having to travel to get anywhere

. Spend all our time running the kids around these days. Our new 520d , only had since Dec'14 and already almost 10K miles on the clock

Yeah, have fitted 3 different types of child seat in my CSL. Bulkier child seats are a pain and cannot pass behind the front seats but can be fitted by passing them through the boot with the rear seat backs folded for access. I always fit a seat protector or sheet when using a child seat.

I have also stuck several different types of car seat in the back, all fit fine.

To get the bulkier ones into the back I put one front seat forward and one back, and then the car seat will fit through the gap between the front seats!

Would recommend a full seat protector...
