With isofix you need to have a car that has isofix seats. We do, we have a renault megene and it has a label on all the seats that say isofix.

Iso fix is a system that is built in to the car. You basically have metal hooks that are secured to the seats of your car. You then clip your car seat directly in to these hooks. They are considered safer as there is no confusion over the routing of the seat belt. Provided the car seat is clipped in to the hooks the car seat is fitted ok.
Most new cars have isofix points.

Hope that helps
