Stroller recommendations

We are looking to replace our vennici tinum which we have had since DD was born. It has been great but she is now nearly 2.5, she walks really well so we only use it a couple of times a week at most.

We are looking for a stroller type buggy- lightweight, easy to get in and out of my Toyota Yaris (vennici has to have a wheel removed) but reasonably comfy/sturdy.

However our big issue is we ideally need something where the handle height adjusts- there is a foot difference between DP and me so handles that suit one are unlikely to suit the other. While we might not use it that often when we do it will be for long days out- theme parks, trips to London etc so lots of pushing.

As it's only going to be used occasionally for a couple of years max we are looking to spend no more than about £150 but I'm happy to look second hand if something perfect is out there for more than that.
Any ideas?

I’m looking to get the silver cross reflex for my own 18m old as a pram alternative but it’s a bit more than your stated budget however they do cheaper versions of this model - the zest and the pop which could be worth you looking in to?

Thanks the reflex has the adjustable handles. The others don't but obviously are cheaper!
I will see if I can find a reflex second hand or a pop what we could both have a go pushing to see if it's comfortable.

The Bugaboo Bee has a good range of handle heights and can be found for your budget secondhand, I think it's being discontinued.

Also the Baby Jogger is a great buggy for bigger kids as it has a large seat and sturdy and folds flat, but doesn't have an adjustable handles, but has been OK for me and DH (foot height difference between us).

I saw a baby jogger city near me 2nd hand which we considered as it looks great but folded it looked no smaller than the tinum we have now.
Will have a look for a bee thank you
