Our 90th centile DS will soon outgrow his newborn to 13kg car seat which clicks onto our stroller frame. We live in a busy city and use taxis all the time so this arrangement has been a godsend (we're overseas so no black cabs). I'm basically wondering if there is a good travel system including car seat for older babies over 13kg?
Our current stroller is a cheap one, very lightweight and one-handed fold/unfold - basically a YoYo lookalike. We have an older model Bugaboo Cameleon as well which is very comfy and great for local walks etc. However it is a bit of a tank, awkward to fold away and put up, so we never use it in taxis. We also fly a lot and have only used the YoYo clone for that - we can take it to the gate and usually get it back at the aircraft door.
Happy to invest in a good system that would last us a while (and possibly next baby). Any recommendations? Or if you can't get a bigger car seat on a buggy, how do you manage if you're a frequent traveller/ taxi user?

Best travel system for older baby

Most kids that age go free range in cars and taxis here 
.
I have seen toddler travel car seats. They basically are 5 point harnesses in canvas, secured in the car with the seatbelt behind the child (have a Google and see if any come up in your area - i think these come from the Far East mainly).
Over 15kg, we use a Trunki boosterpac for my kids, but yours sounds far to young for that atm.
There is also a travel trolley that you can strap a toddler carseat too to enable it to go through the airport. Something like this. If you had an airline approved seat, that might work for the flights.
