Will a Bugaboo Fox fit?

Hi everyone!

I'm just wondering does anybody have a Bugaboo Fox 3 or 5 and an Audi A3?
Will this fit in the boot without having to take the wheels off?
Previously I had a Bugaboo Chameleon and it was such a faff having to take the wheels off the pushchair each time I got it in and out of the boot of the car.
Anything to make my life that little bit easier would be great but I do really like the Bugaboos!

Thanks😊

Bumping at I also have a small boot and really like the bugaboo fox

Planning to book an appointment with John Lewis to try it in my boot 😊

I was wondering if you could do that but the only John Lewis available to me is in the city centre which isn't ideal for a car boot check😅

I have heard that it is quite bulky and the seat often needs to be removed from the chassis to fit it in car boots.
Have you looked at the Lynx? It is slightly more compact.

I'm not too fussed about taking the seat or bassinette off, just mainly don't want to have to take the wheels on/off.
Just been looking at the Lynx and it doesn't look all that much different actually! Aside from the suspension - Thanks! 😄

Thought I'd post an update for anyone else thinking of the Fox 3 paired with an Audi A3 as there seems to be nothing on line from personal experiences.

So I took the risk and ordered myself a Bugaboo Fox 3 bundle as the saving was too good to miss.
Took the frame out the box and popped on the (surprisingly large) back wheels and gave it a try in the boot of my car...it fits! Without taking the wheels off too😃I've not tried to include the basinette in the boot with the parcel shelf on but I imagine the parcel shelf may need removing however, for the seat fixing this looks like it will fit no problem with the bumper bar removed.

@NeonBlonde I know this thread is from ages ago, but I'm just wondering what the dimensions of your boot were?

I'm looking at Fox 5 which has roughly same measurements but I'm not sure it'll fit in our Hyundai i10 boot!

The Fox 3 fit in my Audi A3 (2014) although it was always better when I took off the bumper bar.
It did take up the full boot pretty much but atleast it fit ☺️🙈

@NeonBlonde thanks! I think it’s the depth of our boot that’s the problem 😔

Looks like an Audi A3 has a 70cm-ish deep boot, whereas Hyundai i10 only a 45ish. Eek!

I wonder if you take the wheels off and had it on the side it might fit 😖 fingers crossed for you!
