Two prams in mind... Help!

I have the twin Maclaren (and a single Vogue) and I love them both! I couldn't find a secondhand double but found a great price at Glenhuntly baby carriage - they have an online shop too. I also have a Mountain Buggy double for hitting the street. I bought the Maclaren as the other pram didn't fit in the car. My 3.5 year old is size 4+ clothes so quite big and still fits.

Thanks, a friend suggested the Maclaren and we only want to buy 1 pram/stroller and keep our old single one for DP if he ever has 1 of the kids.

It's so hard as some of the side by sides are VERY bulky, we have to sell my car so need something to fit in a normal sedan boot. We are hoping to buy a wagon but can't guarantee it!

Ok so right now i need the good, the bad and the ugly on the:

Babylove Tandem Lite
City Elite or City Mini Jogger
Maclaren Stroller

Any other suggestions are great, nothing too bulky and not a phil & teds... i don't like the bub underneath on the single and the double was quite bulky width wise. IMO that is.

FWIW - Maclaren double is narrower than 2 of the singles - I could just get it in my Mazda 121 boot (was old bubble shaped model). Let me know if you want me to measure it folded.

Ohh that would be great, have a friend who has one so asked if she minds if i have a fiddle but would be great to know dimensions!
Your awesome!

I have made some bad purchases in the past in an effort to save $$ - the measurements are generous - so have gone to the max rather than just the frame/handles.
W - 55cm H - 115cm D - 55cm
I found the tricky part getting the pram in the narrow boot opening, so a practice run sounds excellent. I also looked at BabyClub version - but the handling was not as good, may not be so important with a slighter toddler. Happy shopping!

Have you seen the Strider Plus? A good 2 child pram alternative to P&Ts
