Auto Express road tested the Multimac in their RS3. Read what they had to say about it….
Auto Express Multimac review :
“IF youโve got a growing family, then chances are your only option when choosing a new ย car is a spacious and sensible MPV. However, thanks to Multimacโs three and four-child car seats, you can now turn anything from a MINI ย to a Mondeo into practical people carrier. The West Midlands companyโs clever singlepiece unit fits across the standard rear bench and incorporates up to four individual seats that will accommodate children from birth up to 12 years old. We tried the brandโs ยฃ1,499 1260 four-seater design in an Audi RS3. A Multimac engineer fitted the unit in ย minutes by securing a pair of ratcheted tether straps to the carโs standard lap belt mounting
points, before lowering a pair of strong and adjustable legs that are braced against the floor and stabilise the seat. According to Multimac, the bench can be removed quickly, and with practice owners can complete ย installation and removal themselves. Once fitted, we found getting four kids in ย the back a doddle, while the adjustable fivepoint straps were easy to use. And despite ย the narrow look of the seats, even the largest ย of our young testers claimed to be comfortable. Prices range from ยฃ1,299 to ยฃ1,499 for the 1260 we tested and even wider 1320. While the seats seem costly next to standard versions, theyโre still cheaper than replacing your car. ”
