Britax Evolva 123 comes in many colours and designs. I am going to review the Olivia version. We bought this just before Christmas 2010 on a visit to Mothercare. While there we discovered many different models with differnt functions and prices. What I find really annoying about Mothercare is the labels don't tell you enough information if any at all. This means you have to track down the nearest free shop assistant , and you can guarantee their always busy. I already had my eye on this chair because of its complete girlyness.So we went for the kill and got the car seat lady to check it in the car. She could tell us the features later. We have a very small 3 ...  Read the complete review

I got this seat to go in my Clio, I have had it in the back seat and in the front seat. I find the seat is OK, it is relatively easy to fit, but you do need a bit of muscle to get the seat belt strapped through it tight enough. Also threading through the seat belt around the back of the seat is a little fiddly.

I am a car seat tester. Be careful with this car seat and get it tested before you buy it, common problems are buckle crunching (which is when your car seat buckle is too high on the child seat. this can be extremely dangerous as it can stop the child seat being pulled tight enough and it could mean that your buckle could shatter i an accident therefore making it worthless) The reason being is because it has siuch a low base. Seatbelt length is another commn problem with this car seat because of the way the seatbelt threads through. The shape of your car seat will also determine whether it will fit securly enough in your car. be aware of all these group 123 car seats .  Read the complete review
