We bought the newer SnS capsule - rebranded Fisher Price - because it goes upto 12kg, and DD3 is likely to be in it until after she reaches 1.
ETA: I don't like the IGC seats because the quality is not there, the reclining arm bend out of shape so easily when it is forward facing and makes the whole seat lean to one side. they are cheaper for a reason. We did have them for the older 2 but once the reclining arms went we switched brands. Infa, SnS and the Cargo/Hipod (BigW and Target rebrands) are very good and can be switched from car to car without falling apart as easily.

We have 2 cars. We bought 2 reversible seats and put one in my car and have kept the other one to put into DH's car after our 6mth hire of a capsule runs out. We hired a capsule from the Red Cross (in SA) as we decided that it would be easier to transport DS around particularly when going to church on Sundays rather than having to get the pram out all the time or having a sling of some sort for those sorts of times. We decided not to buy and to hire instead as we couldn't afford paying for a capsule and 2 car seats. At about $80 for 6mths hire we thought we could justify the cost of hiring - and we don't have to worry about what to do with the capsule when we finished using it - just have to make sure it's clean when we return it.
we bought with our first born knowing we wanted a few children.. i have lent it out to others so it has never been idol.. its about to be used with its 5th child....
