3 booster seats in the back of an E90

Steve vRS · 03-01-2011, 08:02 AM

Has anyone squeezed 3 booster seats in the back of a 3XX saloon?

I've got 2 kids but there will no doubt be times when we end up ferrying someone else's kid to parties etc.

Thanks in advance!

no. Ive looked into this as its a regular dilemma for me.

As you know the rear seats are so sculpted that 3 is never a good option whether its booster seats or even 3 adults. You'd have to find a really narrow booster to fit three of them in and even then you'd have to raise them up where the sculped areas are to ensure they were flat. Its a pain !

Please post a solution if you find one !

Unfortunately, it is the only solution in the e9x - the rear bench just won't accomodate 3 individual booster seats.

If that is the case, I think for short, infrequent journeys, the solution will be a child seat in each of the 2 outer rear seats, one in the front and the missus squeezed in the middle!

Yep - that is what we've resorted to.

I'd better get my missus down from a 12 to a 10 then before April

Um, yes, that is a slight snag

.

My neighbour got rid of his old shape X5 because he couldn't get 3 kids side-by-side in whatever combination of seats he needed, so it's not just an E9X problem it seems. That said, did seem a little far-fetched, I did wonder whether he just wanted an excuse to change!!

Send 3rd kid in a taxi with the rest and enjoy a quite drive

I hate to say it but my wife's Touran will accomodate 3 booster seats.
