Hi,

It is soon time to upgrade my 04 E60 to a 07...
In the mean time 20 years of practice drills in the bedroom is coming to an end, and I am about to conduct live fire drills...

Anyone here that can share some information about E60 and baby prams!?

Regards

Nothing wrong with a touring !!

However there are so many types of Baby pram out there, one is bound to fit the bill and allow you your 1st choice car.

Remember the baby only needs the pram for a year then you can use a smaller buggy and even a baby must appreciate an E60 more than any pram.

I had no problems (well, nearly) fitting baby, pram and a dog in an E39 saloon, so you should be OK. Now that the second baby has arrived, the touring is needed...

BTW - the touring is NOT a bad car at all!

Our baby is on the way ..the E60 is holding up pretty well to mummy's demands with regards to storing pram and other baby accessories. Space enough.

I'm assuming a pram is your way of saying car seat...you will have no problems. E60's have plenty of room. Look for one that has the LATCH system. This is a special buckle that clicks into tucked and hidden latches under the rear seat cushions. You'll also have lots of room for the stroller in the trunk. Good luck and happy new year!

A pram is a stroller (short for "perambulator", which is basically New Latin for stroller, if you really want to know). And the equivalent of the LATCH system is called ISOFIX.

I heard that BMW is manufacturing prams that should fit perfectly in the E60...
Thanks for the tips...
