Baby Jogger City Mini GT or Mountain Buggy Mini?

Can anyone advise which one would be better for a 4 year old who's likely still to need to be in a buggy for another year or so? She's only 82 cm in height and only 11.8 kg in weight so is fine in a Maclaren Volo for the time being but I like the look of both the BJ City Mini GT and the MB Mini for a more comfortable, off-road ride!

The Mountain Buggy Mini is FAR from a comfortable ride! The wheels vibrate like you wouldn't believe!! Look at the Swift instead which is more of an off road pushchair which is neat for the town too. The Mountain Buggy Mini has an incredibly shallow seat too. Its only 18cms deep! Even for a small bottom, thats not much!

Oh and BTW I would get the BJCMGT no question. They just function much better than Mountain Buggies, are more luxurious eg pockets, peekaboo windows, handbrake, bigger seat etc. plus the fold is much neater.

I've the City mini GT. not suitable for a newborn but fantastic from 6 months. Can't recommend highly enough.

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT is totally suitable for a newborn! The seat lies completely flat and if its not cosy enough then there are numerous options including a choice of 3 carrycots, the option to add soft cots like a Petite Zia or Graco one, or a cocoon like the Bugaboo one or a Snunkie baby nest and there's always the car seat option too!!

It never occurred to me newborn could work but those options all sound good.
