Lorenzo and others,

The child seat is black rubber, it fits on the passengers seat and comes
with a few belts to fasten it.  It also has things like a horse saddle (but
not in iron!) to rest the childrens feet when they are too small to reach
the footrests.  It has no belt to fasten the child itself in the seat, so
it has to be old enough to stay seated ...

They say it's for children from 13kg (2years??????) till 25 kg.

I asked the Belgian import company (RAD) for more specifications: all they
would say is that it comes from a German company called Samatakis (phone:
++ 49 (= Germany) 931 43 997, fax ++49 931 415 557)
