I never had a junior seat like this when I was young. Come to think of it, I didn’t have any sort of safety seat, at all… Nevertheless, times change and dad even wears a seatbelt nowadays –seriously, I’m not joking! Even if you’re not into bimmers, you have to acknowledge that the BMW Sauber F1 Junior Seat really looks the part (Honda fans should take a look here). According to the German carmaker, the new child seat is homologated for weight classes II and III, which means children weighing between 15 and 36 kg or 33 and 79 lb (approx 3.5 - 12 years of age). -Continued after the jumpGood looks apart, BMW's child seat comes with a height-adjustable backrest including a belt carrier and side support as well as a headrest for extra safety. What’s cool though is the fact that the backrest and side support interact with one another, automatically adjusting the seat width as a function of seat height. As a result, the seat literally "grows" with the child sitting in the seat, the correct position being shown by a centimeter scale on the backrest indicating the body height currently set on the seat. And I though it was just a plain, simple child seat. Silly me…

Where can I get that?!!!
Great produce, but were do i get one!
Could you post a comment on where to get it?
Hi all,
The child seats are available from BMW dealers. Contact them and ask for the specific seat. However, it may not be available on all markets
I asked at BMW Canada and they don't have it. What abot the states? anybody knows?
I can picture my kid strapped in the back of my M5 in that thing. It looks comfy and sturdy - I hope it comes in different colors though.
The BMW seats are only available in Europe as far as I know. The ECE-R44 approval is not valid in US, Canada and Australia. But the manufacturer works on this...
Looks similar to the Recaro infant & child seats I use now. This one has better graphics though. But if you need a cool seat for your kids right now check out Recaro.
Anyone know where to get instructions for BMW Junior car seat without ISOFIX? I was given one by someone leaving town but am keen to know how to fit it correctly. Cannot find ANYTHING on the net!
... so far
