Hi all

I have had numerous buggys over the years the best i ever had was obviously the phil and teds sport and i would LOVE to have another but cant justify getting one now Jack is 2 and a half so its not worth it.
The other favourite was the maclaren techno XT.

My most recent is the silver cross pop which i've had for 4 months and already the rear wheels have worn down and its awful to push, DP also thinks this too after getting to push it round over the xmas holidays so i am allowed a new one.

Cant afford a P&T, or even a brand new maclaren techno XT so i'm not sure what to go for next.

I'd like something with decent wheels/tyres even. Still lies back slighty cos Jack still sleeps occasionally in his buggy. And obviously something a bit trendy too.

The ones i've had are:
P&T E3 in charcoal
Quinny speedi
Micralite
Jane powertwin
P&T sport camo blue (my biggest regret was letting that one go) AND black
Quinny zapp
Infinity
Maclaren quest
silver cross pop

what sort are u after lol

JackJacksmummy · 05/01/2009 22:07

I really dont know TBH.

It would have to be something that is easy to manouvre cos we walk quite a lot and go on the bus to nursery every day.

I'd like the maxi-cosi mura 3 or even the 4 but dont know how suitable it will be for a toddler.

I've always wanted a buzz but again i think my DS is too big for one of those now.
This will most probably be my last buggy because i think he'll be out of his buggy in 6 months ish.

I really liked the M&P Ziko, I found it very easy to steer, stayed in really good condition, light weight and pretty slim line makig it really easy to get on and off public transport.
I also liked the zip on rain cover.

i really wanted to try a mura but was put off everyone saying it was heavy, i saw one in mothercare at bluewater the other day and just made me love it more, the seat is lovely!
