We are looking to gift our kids with a car to get around the city. They have 2 small kids just 13mths apart so will be in car seats for awhile yet. I have an appt to go look at a 2001 Ford Focus wagon and I don't know where to look to see if there are any car seat anchors. Anyone have any know how about this? Or direction? I don't want to register for the vehicle safety forum for just one question, but would be thrilled if someone who is registered could ask?
Thanks so much

It will have top tether anchors. It may not have lower anchors. It doesn't need lower anchors, so that's not a concern. They can always install with the seatbelt. Lower anchors aren't safer.

But on googling the Ford's manual and downloading it, it has lower anchors available in the back.
