All Things Mk5 > Mk5 General Area

any young parents with new borns with a MK5 golf, want to know if a Bugaboo fits

<< < (2/6) > >>

I have a bugaboo and a 4 week old son!

Yes it fits in the Mk4 and Mk5 without removing the wheels too - although parcel shelf is lifted putting it in one way.  Base with carry cot on top fits, carry cot on the side facing back seats with base in behind on its side also fits.

This is with the carry cot base obviously with him being a new born.


god you find all sorts of info on these forums!  :drinking:

thanks. wouldn't want to take wheels on and off at all times though, too much hassle

neg, does it fit flat to the floor at all, or does the base and carry cost have to fit on it's side?
do you lift out your parcel shelf, or does it just about fit with it on the side with the parcel shelf lifted alittle?

i was also debating about a r32 and the boot looses some inches due to the 4wd system and is almost flat to the lip of the opening, which would mean a definate parcel shelf out job

again pics would be appreciated

great, love forums ;-)

Do you have the baby yet ?, John Lewis will test the prams in your cars if you want to see if they fit

due to join the club in August.

I'm in the middle of car hunting, and it will be the main car for the next 12 months most probably from now, hence thinking about other things too. dare i say it, i might forget the performance side of things and go sensible, like Qashqai.

neg:
If you put the base in first then the carry cot on top the boot shuts but the parcel shelf just lifts a bit as you shut the boot - no problem though.

If you put the carry cot in first on its side pushed upto the back of the rear seat and the the base on its side then they both fit again no real problems.

I will get a pic next time its in the boot.  Not really hard to remove the wheels though anyway but like I said I dont bother.

Its great for controlling with one hand when out and about.

We also got the maxi-cosi attachment brackets so the car seat fits onto the base too for the quicker trips.
