Thanks for your feedback. the P&T sport is my front runner atm. I'm just a little nervous about spending alot of $$$ on a pram too.
How does the nappy bag go on the sport? does it hit the kiddy on the head thats riding in the back ?
On the dash as newborn still flat I don't put nappy bag on back for fact it seems to hit him in head, not sure how it will be when he is sitting up in seat on back.
I have a phil and ted sport as well, the brakes are a PITA but otherwise its good. Not to fussed on the newborn/toddler arrangement but they arnt lying down long enough for it to be an issue. Its easy to fold up and doesnt take up to much room when its lying on its side folded up (but i do have a wagon) As for a nappy bag I cant use one on it either but maz had the awesome idea of putting the link a do's on the handles and attaching a green bag...so i now put everything i need into a greenbag and hang it off the link a do's and it doesnt get in the way.

I have the Valco Run About and use the toddler seat which can be collapsed when not in use.
Had it since DS1 so that's 6.5yrs and the toddler seat we got when I was pregnant with DS2.
It has technically been through 4 kids as when DS1 was younger and DS2 wasn't here yet the toddler seat got used by our lovely niece on a weekly basis.
This pram goes outback! My DH runs with DS2 and DD in it and has ran with it with all kids.
When we had DS1 we only had one car and I walked every where. It is very easy to push, effortless.
Only problem is it doesn't fit through a normal size supermarket aisle, have to use the extra wide aisle.
I have used it for DD since newborn, so it works for all ages. They may have improved even more since we got ours.
Oh, and the nappy bag goes well over the back without hitting baby in the head. You could also attach a mummy hook if you really wanted to carry a few extra
bags and I have also attached a drink holder to mine as well.
I have a Bugaboo for my first and am buying a secondhand Mountain Buggy double for when I have to take both kids out, mine will be mainly for walking. I've found a 4 year old MBUD in great condition with sun and rain covers for $460.
I was looking at the MBUD, the P&T twin and the Adventrue Buggy. The seat reclines on the P&T twin were totally flat or very upright and the Adventure Buggy was a close second, it's a little heavier than the MBUD though.
I have a P&T Vibe and I absolutely love it. I don't know why it would be said that you need to hands to put the brake on as it is a single button right at your hand, very easy to put on. It is however a little more difficult to release, which I personally think it s good thing. You can do it one handed but it does need some practice... I have it down pat now
I have Anelise in the back toddler seat now and Harrison in the front. I only carry a small back pack with me in the pram in the basket and leave the big nappy bag in the car.
I have found that most of the accessories for the P&T's are expensive as you said, but I got a great deal through babies galore which included the sun cover & a rain cover. I have never used the rain one.
