Pushchair for tall toddler and parents?

Can anyone help me with my pushchair search?

My daughter is 16mo and weighs around 30lbs and is also tall like her mum and dad.

We are currently using a second hand graco tank for walks and a second hand cosatto swift lite for nursery drop offs and trips to town on the bus. The cosatto is starting to feel a bit 'flimsy', I think it is about 3/4 years old. The seat is also far too shallow for her and she keeps putting her feet on the wheels.

I have never bought a new pushchair but am willing to do so if I get one that most suits our needs so I don't need to buy another one!

I am 5ft11 and husband is 6ft1. The handle height on the cosatto suits us so it needs to be the same as that or higher. It needs to be easy to use on public transport and be able to fit in the back of a ford focus and Ka.
Any advice appreciated :)

I'm 5"11 with a tall 19 month old and I love my baby jogger city mini. Worth a look?

Bugaboo bee every time, especially if you have a small car and live in a city. Second hand though as they are expensive new- mine was £150 and is pristine polishes wheels and kisses

I sound like a broken record - but the Baby Jogger City Mini or City Mini GT. The GT has the bigger seat. Both chassis are nearly identical in size when folded. The wheels make a bit of difference to the fold, but not much.

A Baby Zen YoYo? I have just been to town to buy one only to find the handle is way too high for me!

Im 5'2 and it was obviously designed for tall people. It was lovely though and very light and folds down very small (I think the smallest of any pushchair available).
