I want a new buggy, the one we have is uncomfortable for dd and painful for me to push after a short while. I sometimes carry her, but that's not always comfy. We don't have a car and want to walk a lot more than we currently do.
She's 20 months old.

How reasonable would it be to buy a new buggy for around £180?

Glad I've read this thread. Dd is 23 months and I'm 35 weeks pregnant. Been weighing up getting a second hand phil and ted's, but worried I should be getting dd out of buggy. But we walk loads - town's a good 40 min walk away and we also like long country walks. Agree it's refreshing to hear people say they use them at 3, 4 and beyond. Walking's my main exercise, I'll never tone up after the pregnancy if I only walk at dd's pace and distance. and if she tantrums anywhere I want to be able to strap her in and leave quick smart

I sold a nipper 360 for £100 on ebay about a year ago, if you are wondering about resale value. I poss could have got more but sold it the day I advertised it on 'buy it now' by undercutting others.

I loved it, DD didn't like the way it snuggled you deep inside and she couldn't see the world as much as she wanted. I maybe had it too young, as she loved a parent facing alternative that is less easy to push. We now have a maclaren, which is a good cheap option but prob not for your purposes.

beano get a P&T. Personally I fiind walking at young child speed infuriating and no good for burning off my energy, so I end up climbing the walls.
