Hi Diva we've not met, am a fellow buggyphile!
My Vit came at 4pm from Babyvalue - it is indeed brand new and in original box, and as you can see here at Mothercare they retail for £100 or so and I got it for £30!!
Anyway had to get it out quickly for a test run before my baby went home, was very easy to assemble, just clicking the back wheels on and getting the hood up - I didn't realise it has a handy Maclaren-esque pocket on the bag which I am going to LOVE!
It was black after all, so going to give my cowprint cosy-lou a go on it and see if it looks ok or not ( and will go lovely with MrsM's cowbag! thx for letting me know posted ) and if not I'll be after you lot with black footmuffs to sell
Took it up the road to the corner shop and omfg marmite or what?
I LURVE IT!!!
It's sooooooooooooooooooooooooo light and easy to steer with one hand and can even get it up kerbs one handedly, going to be very useful feature for me when I have other CM kids with me. I can hang my shopping bag over the handle too which I didn't expect to be able to do that. Baby was really comfy, it's a lovely angle of seat, just enough recline to have a kip but easily up enough to satisfy nosy babies. The footrest is really far away from edge of buggy so it's not going to be outgrown quickly either (going to try 2.5yo in it tomorrow)
All in all I can see why every review I read gave this wee buggy 4-5 stars, I just wish it looked less like a shopping/golf trolley
