ARGH - need pram help!

It's my first child, and I have no idea about prams AT ALL!

I hate the plastic things they have in the shops, all seem so plasticy with shopping-trolley wheels. I love the vintage silver cross coachbuilt pram - is it worth getting one of these? And a buggy for when it needs to go in a pushchair?

We don't have stairs, and will get one that folds down & wheels pop off so it fits in car boot.

There's too much choice, I don't have a clue where to even start! What are the things to consider? I've had a look online but can't find much guidance. We need one for a baby, so it needs to lie flat. We could either buy one that converts into a pushchair, or buy another buggy for when baby is 2 years??! I'm not going to be climbing mountains, but we do live in the countryside in a tiny village, however I don't know if I'm going to be taking it for walks in the fields. I'll probably just get a bus to the nearest town, as we don't have any shops in our (tiny) village.

And then if I DID decide to go for a walk, we could just have one of those baby carry things, which would make more sense than pushing a pram across the fields!

Actually want to scream, this is a whole new unexpected world!!

I had a lovely Bebecar for DS3, he was my last baby and I wanted a lovely modern pram yet with traditional pram wheels for his first year. Mine was a different carrycot as it was red but this is very tradional.
