Hey! Looking for some suggestions on infant car seats for the F30. Both my husband (6'4) and I (5'9) are tall so I feel like we'd need to use the centre seat for the car seat. Trying to find a decent infant car seat and stroller is overwhelming Thanks!

Any car seat/stroller will fit the middle backseat. I installed one on a Audi A3 and that is smaller than an F30. But you mention you guys are tall couple... you might end up just using the window seat for your car seat. As I can imagine that you won't fit either side seat when there a infant car seats in the middle....you going to get squash and you won't be able to move around.

We have maxi Cosi axissfix seats in both our cars and they allow for front seats to be pushed all the way back while still leaving room to spare (although I am in an f10)

Try some out, we love the axissfix as it makes taking little one in and out a lot easier

As for stroller - we went for a bugaboo bee 5

Chico keyfit... Works great and fits right in the stroller. Stroller easily folds up into a size a little bigger than a carry on bag. Hope this helps

We have an uppa baby Mesa car seat for our youngest and it has to go on the passenger side. I’m 6’3 and no comfortable way to have that behind me for any length of time. The Mrs is just shorter than you and has no issue other than then it’s not as spacious as her SUV. Test out a few, I know how much of a nightmare trying to find a stroller and car seat is. Btw the vista stroller with 2 seats fits in the trump but that’s about all it can handle.

No rear-facing baby carrier is going to be narrow enough to fit in between the two front seat backs. Either both of you will have to give up leg room, or just one if you pick a outboard position.

The rear facing seat is certainly the seat that takes up the most room. I was glad when each of our kids got out of that rear facing seat, at least in the smaller cars (an e46 and f30 bmw). The van was fine, of course. Look around and see what you like. For us, we wanted a base in each car so that we would always be ready regardless of who was available to get the little one. I believe we had a Graco system. It has been a while now - 3 is enough. We also liked the ones that seamlessly integrated into a stroller. Good luck.

Same experience here, though I'm much shorter and still has to go passenger side. Many infant carriers will fit fine, gets tricky on rear facing convertible seat.

All great info! I appreciate all the replies. I guess it is best to try each out and see what fits best behind us and great to know about the strollers and trunk size!

We use a Nuna stokke car seat, it is not compatible with my 3/4 series. Doona car seat/stroller is good to go.

On that note, our forward facing Clek products do not fit f30 rear seat configuration.
