I am not sure that you can - I am fairly sure the dealer said that it was not possible on the S

Alot of other sports car do not allow you to ......... however on the Lotus Exige there is a key to do just that ... weird huh ......!!!!!!!!

Anyway I am not sure taking a young child in the S would be the best idea. Depends on his/her need for speed.

On the S it says no rear facing baby seats, can you put a forward facing seat in the passenger seat or is it considered a no no which ever way due to air bags?

I think 'hope' is the word you're looking for

Surely there's a fuse for each airbag.

pretty sure it's for rear facing seats though, front facing is ok.

re: best reason not to race - it says that the people in the cars were flung into bushes/onto road etc. Those yanks don't use the seatbelts do they
