Which Silver Cross is this?

Hi ladies

I'm 29 weeks with DC3 and because my older two are now 5 and 8 they are long out of the buggy stage! I have kindly had a Silver Cross pushchair and accessories donated to me which is a few years old but in great shape. However it doesn't have a car seat or adapters with it so I was thinking I'd buy the Silver Cross simplicity car seat and get some adapters.

The issue is that I'm not too sure if what I have is a Silver Cross Reflex or a Silver Cross Pop or possibly something different!! There are no labels anywhere on it to tell me and because it's a few years old it is a different fabric than the current Silver Cross models.

Attaching a couple of pics - really hoping someone can help!

It would be easier to tell with a picture of it up, or not collapsed. Whatever the technical term is 🙈

LittleMissSnowShine · 24/02/2019 16:52

Oh true! I will stick it up this eve and take a few more pics - thank you! Grin

I think that it’s a 3d. In pistachio.
Does it have flip up adapters under the fabrics? I used to sell these (about ten years ago) so can’t fully recollect.
I think that the 3D has a white liner so it can be a parent facing carrycot and then becomes a forward facing pushchair.

I might be miles off the mark though.

I concur with Winky!

greyspottedgoose · 24/02/2019 17:04

That was my thought too but couldn't see the top of the handle to see if they where separate or one single bar across

Mumofboys95 · 24/02/2019 17:06

I had this in plain black about 6yrs for ds1

Think it's the silver cross 3D

Mumofboys95 · 24/02/2019 17:07

*6yrs ago not for 6yrs

flamingofridays · 24/02/2019 17:10

What is handle like? 1 long one or 2 seperate?

Of its 1 im guessing its a freeway if its 2 its a 3d.

flamingofridays · 24/02/2019 17:12

Actually looking at the fold i think it is a 3d.

happymummy12345 · 24/02/2019 17:18

I'm sure that's the linear freeway. It's the pram my mum had for my sister in 2012. Exact same design. (Unless they made the 3D in the same design as well).

Bamchic · 24/02/2019 19:15

As above 1 handle linear freeway (deffo does fit the simplicity) if 2 handles it’s the 3D x

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 24/02/2019 20:21

I didn’t think that the freeway was an umbrella fold but am working from very old knowledge.
The colour design is called pistachio. —I have no idea why a mind that can’t remember to take something out of the freezer for tea can remember that—

LittleMissSnowShine · 24/02/2019 20:44

Thanks so much everyone! Looks like it is a Freeway 3D because yes it has two handles and it came with a white liner newborn liner thing. I've included a couple of other pics of it here just to see if that definitely settles it!!

And just to add then - if you guys had this model yourselves at some point, can you get a carseat that goes with it? Thanks again!

OP posts:
RandomMess · 24/02/2019 20:57

No doubt it's the 3D

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 24/02/2019 20:59

I think that the car seat that fit was called the Ventura. I have a feeling that the simplicity doesn’t fit.

If you feel in the seat, are there two small, square adapters that flick up? I could be thinking of a different pram though.

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 24/02/2019 21:05

I seem to remember the maxi cosi infant carrier fitting the later models too.

Cheerybigbottom · 24/02/2019 21:13

It's the 3D, I had it for my ds 7 years ago and it came as a package with the infant car seat then

LittleMissSnowShine · 24/02/2019 21:19

For some reason they have given me a hauck group zero car seat along with the pram but I can't figure out how / if these two things combine!!! Confused

It doesn't seem like they still make the ventura plus car seat any more so I can't easily source one of these unfortunately! But maybe a maxi cosi would do the job?

Thanks again for your help!!

OP posts:
flamingofridays · 24/02/2019 21:24

I doubt a hauck would fit it but you never know maybe the adaptors are the same.

I v rarely put the car seat on the pram anyway as theyre not supposed to stay in them for long so i didnt see the point. (I did walk a lot more than drive if i could help it though!)

WinkyisbackontheButterBeer · 24/02/2019 21:24

There is a new boxed Ventura on eBay. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRAND-NEW-SILVERCROSS-VENTURA-PLUS-CAR-SEAT-IN-BOX/273627460107?hash=item3fb577b20b%3Ag%3A6rAAAOSwA3dYN1yu&LH_ItemCondition=1000

I could be wrong about the maxi cosi but it might be worth a check.

LittleMissSnowShine · 24/02/2019 21:36

I'm in Belfast and a lot of the time sellers on eBay won't post bigger items unfortunately Sad

The car seat is not really a big issue really, I prefer for them to lie flat as much as possible but it is handy to have the option I guess!
