Will a Jane Powertwin Pro fit in the boot of my Audi A3?

Thats pretty much it. Have a 5 door Audi A3 and am wondering if the Jane Powertwin Pro will fit in it...

I don't know how big the boot will be, but tge Powertwin is small folded if you pop the rear wheels off. You can tuck the front wheel and plate into the chassis a bit too, but if you also pop that wheel off, it tucks right inside so you have a nice cuboid shape.

It fits easily in a Peugeot 207 boot without tucking the front wheel in, but taking the rear wheels off. It's really easy to take the wheels off-you just press the button in the middle of the wheels.

It really depends on the boot, but also I think the models are slightly different. The Powertwin Pro we had was a real chunk to put in the boot and filled it. But it depends on how it lies IYKWIM.
Here are a couple of photos of it helps

Photo 2 My boot is actually pretty large - its taken most large pushchairs. So this one surprised me by filling it.

We always disagree about the Powertwin, Tiggy! :o We tried the Pro in the car before buying the old version, but the chassis is almost identical. The photo in your boot doesn't have it in the locked position so it's higher than it could be. Taking the rear wheels off made a big difference too. It's the smallest and neatest double we've tried in the 207, the B-Dual being the second smallest.

Are the rear wheels easy to get on and off? Thanks Ladies
