Chaps
We have booked for May next year with a Virgin Flydrive. Sadly, I let the missus book it and she has (IMO) been roped into an un-necessary insurance on the car. The car comes with basic insurance for free however she went for platinum. Now, sparing all the guff the only difference that we are interested in is that it comes with car seats...but at 400 - 500 quid they are expensive seats!!! Anyhow here comes a few questions.
1 What are the rules regarding car seats. We have 4 kids, they will be 1, 4, 7 and 10 at the time. Do they all need one, can the older ones go with just a booster seat that we can bring ourselves.
2 Assuming we need car seats can we just drive off and then buy them from Wallmart (almost certainly cheaper than 400 - 500 quid or will the car hire company not let us
3 Assuming they wont let us, can we get them / hire them from the car hire place or are they just as dear as the insurance anyway
Cheers all for any replies
