We've got a Quinny Zapp and a Petite Star Zia at the moment (our cars are teeny) but I hate not being able to see Dexter when I'm pushing him around. I've seen a Silver Cross pram/pishchair on ebay near us, it looks in really good condition and has everything with it and its only starting at £30 with no bids and ends in 9 hours!!

I mentioned it to Simon last night and he said no way was I allowed another pushchair (since Libby's been born we've had 7)

7????? Im with Simon on this im afraid lol!

Im not a pram person but. We've had 3 - the graco travel system, then a mamas & papa's beat buggy and now a basic maclaren side by side double stroller/buggy.

I think if id the £££ or the wit to look on ebay I maybe would be into prams but at the time when pg with Caitlin I hadnt really realised that prams could be a 'fashion' thing or that they had so many dif features. Iv got used to basic now and some of the prams out there are worth more than my car which seems crazy!!!

Each to their own but. It does sound like a bargain. Id add up how much you have saved him by BF dexter hehe, and throw it back in his face the way he does to you! If its what you want go for it... im guessing you have sold some of the 7 prams and are making £ back anyway? Or are you a crazy pram lady with them all lined up in the kitchen or something???

Haha, yeah we've sold them all on and just have the 2 left now

I'm terrible for prams, if I see one I like I want it. We used to buy them brand new but the couple we've bought second hand and this one does seem a bargain.

What a good idea about the saving money on BF, I could always ask for it for my birthday which is at the end of the month.... hmmm

Why don't you get the zapp extra seat as you can turn that round to face either way. I love mine! You can buy just the seats on ebay around 50-70 I think new so might get a better deal second hand. To make you feel better about not having the silver cross i've only heard bad things from people who have it. It used to be my dream pushchair.

The silver cross as really bad reviews we were going to have one, but the reviews put us off.

Argh... you had to mention this, didnt you Shell!? Im going to have to do this now!!! x

The seat unit is a good idea but I like snoops idea of pointing out how much money you save every month not buying formula to the tight git. (Sorry)

Ive had um

For Caelyn: Mamas Papas 03 sport bought new now sold
5 pound stroller off ebay which we still have

For Awen: A mothercare xcursion and a loola up both of which i got 2nd hand off ebay and sold immediately as I hated them for what i paid for them before buying a second hand Obaby for a tenner
Our double stroller

So 6 though only actually have 2 at any time

I love my silver cross pram. (I can't compare it to other prams as it is the only one I have had). I have the linear freeway and love the fact you can have it it both ways round. The only downfall I will say is it is rather bulky when folded down and won't fit in smallish boots but I have an estate car so have the room. Susan you might find it won't fit in your boot..sorry

Clare and Shell what bad things have you heard and read abouth them? I hope I am not in for nasty suprise furher along the line as so far it has been great.

i was thinking of the 3d pushchair, just heard its bulky, hard to steer and big when folded. Doesnt sound like you need to worry

Well it ended at £67 so I definately wouldnt of been allowed it for that price - Simon did say I could have it for around £40 if I sell the Zia so bit peeved now that it went for so much

I'm now searching for another bargain rear facing pushchair x

ah shame you missed it! i always wanted a silvercross, but had to have a double...this time though i spotted a gorgeous stokke pushchair i really want...it comes with a lovely £600 price tag though! :S
