How do I find out which carseat fits into my car?
Hi I am new here
I am looking for pushchair Travel systems, but have heard that not all carseats fit into your car. (Vauxhall Vectra)
How do I find out which carseat/infant carrier fits into my car without buying it first and trying it? Is there any website guide?
Thanks

I would consider getting a nice pushchair and a 0+ car seat if it will fit in your car. Travel systems are so expensive and our chinky monkey outgrew his 0+ car seat at 6 moths - they work out so expensive.
But, to answer your question most of the car seat manufacturers have websites that tell you which car they fit.
@Tyger: I had the impression travel systems were cheaper than buying seperate pushchair+ Car seat.
There are travel systems on the market starting from 120 pound (for example from Graco).
Graco SnugRide Infant Car Seat is a great choice. I bought for my daughter. Now my little son uses it.
Try going along to Mothercare and asking them to try the seats you are considering in your car. They have a good range at the big retail park stores and are more than happy to try fitting them for you. Otherwise, the Britax website tells you which of their car seats have been crash tested in specific cars/models.
