Could be wrong but I seem to remember reading that Vaux say you shouldn't fit a Baby Seat in a VX?...

Turn the pram buggy thing around 180 degrees, put a little toy steering wheel thing in the front so he can pretend he's driving and you're good to go.

I'm looking forward to taking my little girl out in the VX. She's 10 months now but I'm holding off as I dont think she'd like it much not been able to see out etc. I would wait until the nipper is out of the small baby seats and in forward facing. Any old forward facing seat will fit and then your stroller pushchair options are Quinny Zap and Petite Star. We have the Petite Star as I got overruled. The Quinny Zap will go in the boot but the Petite Star you have to take two of the wheels off.
