after much thought i think i am going to go for a uppa baby vista with piggyback board, did consider a britax b smart and a baby jogger city mini 4 wheel, but have thought about it and i need a large basket that will take 2 rucksacks also needs to take a good weight and be parent facing as my dd4 talks alot when facing me but is silent when facing away, she also seems to be alot happier facing me as well. i am not bothered about the size as i walk everywhere, is this a good choice for me because as i said i won't get away with bringing any more through the front door :( have watch loads of demos on youtube and it looks ideal, but i will have to buy blind as no local stockests, also if you do own one who did you buy it off. many thanks :o

yes, this is what i have enquired about as i do not need the carrycot, this will also make it cheaper, just worried that the hood may be smaller as it is classsed as a second seat but will check. i would still like a vista but will get the mima in the door first and sell all my pushchairs :o

Yes do check but on the Kobi (at least when I was told about it) the second seat doesn't come with a hood and you but the second smaller two fold, rather than three fold, hood separately. But I am sure two toddlers was a Kobi option - after all the only difference is there is no carrycot in the centre of the seat but instead I believe there's is some supporting fabrics (i think a metal frame). The only caution would be the resale would be better with the carrycot present as I don't believe you can buy the carrycot insert? But I can't look it up right now to check so I may be wrong. Most buyers would probably want a carrycot.

if it only comes with a two fold hood, then i will have to pay full price and get the seat with the carrycot, but if i can get the larger hood then i will go for the cheaper option, re the carrycot when i come to sell it i would have thought you would be able to get the carrycot as a spare part,

cosmo silver xari - 31513350
silver seat insert sure she called this a starter pack - 31515050 this one is what i think is wrong as they dont do a silver insert bet its the second seat.
black seat insert [starter pack] - 31515001
when you phone double check what these link to, as she was getting really confused as it is new out and she did not know much about them, you can order over the phone and when they put these order numbers in it will show what they are for. let us know how you get on :o are you going to get one then, have you been to see one yet.

No, not yet as i live in Nottingham...Our JL isn't stocking them [grrr]...I hate driving on motorways and to new places so i need to pluck the courage up...Or else catch the train there...Or get DH to drive me there on a Sunday after i've finished work but i'd rather he not see the price!!! Though i have told him it's in the same region as a Donkey which he did know the price of before i bought it.

this is where my Kobi was imported from,you could try phoning them maybe??? they have the white Xari's
pramsgalore4 · 18/07/2011 20:40
if i got a white one i would be not letting anyone touch it and dd would be banned from eating and drinking in it, could i keep it clean 
with four kids. my stokke did not have a mark on it when i sold it, so i could do it but i was forever telling the kids to get away from it when they were eating out
