P&T explorer or New Nipper single 2011???????

Hi All,
I'm pregnant with my 4th, and last! I want to finally crack the 'perfect' pushchair. I definitely need a three wheeler, as we live in the country. I love the look of the P&T explorer, but some say its only good if you need it as a double? Is this true? Is it worth it just for one child? I also like the look of the new nipper single to be released in July, I am swayed by its miniscule weight of 7kg and the new adjustable handlebar, but the P&T still looks sexier! Price of the Nipper 2011 is to be £259.95, and I have seen the explorer for £319, so not a massive difference.
Has anybody got some good advice, or experience of both pushchairs or any other suggestions for that matter, but price not above the £319 mark...I'm going round in circles trying to decide!
Thanks in advance.

I have a P&T classic V2 (explorer without the frills) and it's great, when I don't want a double I put the second seat on and store all the shopping. Am a big P&T fan having had the original E3 1st time round as a single (stupidly sold it then needed it!). However, I do have a nipper sport as I run a lot and it's a better buggy as a single than P&T (have had a nipper double as well). In my experience the nippers are lighter, easier to push and better made so head would say nipper....

The pic of the new nipper is here;

Apparently it has 30 improvements including new brake, recline, seat position, wheels etc....

I am very tempted. The rrp is to be £259, but i'm wondering what it will actually sell for?
