I think your best bet is going to be the Radian. It will help you keep the twins rear facing longer, which is safest. Plus they can be tethered when rear facing, that is an added benefit. I believe their rear facing limit is 35lbs.

How old is your older child? If he still fits in the roundabout, he must still be small. I would try and keep him/her in a harnessed seat as long as possible. So maybe a Radian for all three? I know its going to cut a hole in your pocket, but your kids will be safer.

How about you buy two radians, have your older one sit in a radian. Then pass down the roundabout to one of the twins, and have the other twin in a radian. Then when you have more $$ you can buy a third radian.

I am a minivan mom, and they are not that bad. I love to be able to fit so many people. Give them a chance.

	Rear Facing Car Seats A rear-facing seat is one in which the infant faces the back of the car. Always install a rear-facing seat in the back seat of your car. This is the safest position for an infant. NEVER place a rear-facing seat in the front seat of a vehicle with passenger airbags.

	Sunshine Kids Radian 80 or 65 - Click for more info If "the Sunshine Kid's Radian 80 convertible car seat is (probably) the only car seat you will ever need," the "probably" part of this statement comes into play when you directly compare the Radian 80 with the Britax Regent. While the Radian 80 has a very high weight capacity, the seat width is only 10" vs. the Regent's 14" seat. The Britax Regent may be a bit wider, but it is very bulky, is only forward facing, and does not fold like the Radian 80. Because the Radian 80 is so narrow, you can potentially put three of them side by side in the back seat. Three Regents side by side? Impossible.
