Hi First post so please be gentle. I'm looking at giving up my company car at next renewal and getting a classic. A 944 is top of the list at the moment. I have a MK1 Mx5 and a T25 camper van already so I know what i'm getting into as far as giving up mod cons. My main concern though is my 6 year old. She could sit in the front for short journey school pick ups etc. but is there a good fit/sanctioned booster seat for the rear? I know there are some other threads but nothing current that I could find. Also, as I being realistic with a 944 as a daily? 80 mile round trip commute 3 days a week. Thanks alot |

I use my S2 daily and the commute is the best part of the day, despite the traffic. As for booster seats you should be ok with a later model as it will have the rear seat belt mounting points, early ones don't. The main problems I've had were with bad electrical contacts, main one the earth strap. |

The law regarding children in cars has changed dramatically over the last few years, I believe that it is now law to have a child under 12 and under a certain height in a booster seat of some sort, the rear seats in a 924/944/968 are classed as emergency seats whatever that means. You would really need to read all the current regulations and I would try and get a professional opinion from a police officer, preferably a motor way one or traffic officer. |

Thanks for the advice folks. Going to do a bit more digging on the car seat front. I think that's the only sticking point. Cheers |
