Child seat and car rental - Germany

Options
Hi,
I have just booked our car rental with Sixt at Munich airport for 8 days as recommended by moneysavingexpert. We got a great deal, additional driver for free and no excess.
We have one worry, and that is when we stated we wanted a child seat (2 year old), the form accepted that but indicated that we pay this extra locally. Fair enough, but when i called Sixt to ask why the 'extra' did not show on the invoice after booking, the operator said it was because they could not guarantee the seat.
Luckily I paid the GBP 7 cancellation fee so I could pull out, but being such a good price should I chance it? HAs anyone ever had any problems regarding this?

Thanks
Stu
