    Hi again Bay,

    (Looks like you may be able to get one second-hand, but just in case)

    I realised that I posted the wrong address above (have corrected it). I've just checked, and they have a similar deal at the moment, except that they also include one car seat so it's a bit more expensive: £440 including two footmuffs and one changing bag as well as the buggy and car seat:

  • Cissi, thanks for being kind enough to spend time looking for me, but we don't really want to buy new as this season's colours are so bright, they are not to our taste. Besides we don't do red, I have strawberry blonde hair and so has Jack and chances are his sister will have too, red clashes with us. I even told DH I would prefer not to get a red car when we were looking second hand!! Also we don't need a car seat, as we still have our silver cross ventura which has loads of life left in it.

    But thanks anyway.

    No problem Bailey, I agree about the bright colours (and they'll probably look dirty in no time too)! We wouldn't have wanted a new car seat either - a pity they're not doing the same deal they did last year :confused:

    Hope you manage to find a good one second-hand - unfortunately we're not quite ready to give up ours yet as DS one still wants to sit in it when we're walking any distance. I often end up with 2 children in the buggy plus DS's bike balanced over he handle bar :rolleyes:
  • Jim please can you post when you have a spare mo - Thanks a lot

    Hi
    Sorry for delay in replying, computer problems have stopped me being on line
    have decided to keep hold of the powertwin until springtime as it is really warm for the little one, sorry for the delay in letting you know but couldnt get on to the computer to reply
    hope you find one,,, they really are good and we dont regret spending the full amount as this has been worth every penny,
    any more questions just feel free to shout (computer probs seem to be sorted now...fingers crossed)
