Use my current Maclaren XT for holidays or buy a second hand lighter one?

I've got a Maclaren XT which is great for out and about in London.

We're going on holiday to France later this week camping and with space at a premium, I've been looking into buying a second hand Quest or Triumph (both Maclaren). Is it worth it?

We are also flying to New Zealand at Christmas, so it might be useful then too.

I bought a lighter Maclaren (can't remember which) for when we joined DP for a couple of weeks when he was working abroad. Wish I'd just taken my XT. Brakes fiddly, my shade-a-babe didn't fit quite as well, whole thing just irritating. But then we were flying and didn't need to fit it into a car! Also, it was second hand so some issues may have just been age and condition. And this was 7yrs ago... I'm probably not helping here, am I?! :)

I loved my quest.
