Buying a Pram - McLaren XT Techno

[Calluna]

my partner are thinking about getting a "McLaren Techno XT". We like it overall because it is small, light, sturdy and easy to manouvre (sp), but it is a little on the pricey side for us and I would like one that allows us to have our new born facing us. Also the basket is quite small. I was wondering if there is anything like it that will provide us with a bigger basket, lower price and the option to have our little one facing us? Or is this the best were going to do?

Is there anything else i need to think of when buying a pram?

What are peoples opinions on the McLaren?

ETA: We really don't want a 3 wheeler.
