Where is best to buy a Mountain buggy?
Are they still making them?

Mothercare have them online at full price but Kiddicare don't

we bought ours from here and they were great. We got a good deal, fast delivery and they were really helpful. We love our MB and nothing else we've tried comes even close

Forget MountainBuggy, go for Out'n'About

Not looking to run thanks

I want an adjustable handle and a carrycot but I don't think the nipper 360 has those

eldonave - no swift does not take a carrycot or car seat. i spent a lot of time dithering between the swift and the urban cos i did want a carrycot but i'm really glad i went for the smaller swift - the urban is a bit of a monster and would be pretty unwieldy on london buses. the swift seat lies almost flat for newborns (my lo is 3 months now) and i love it to pieces (and my ds!!)

thanks, it looks like they are bringing out a new version of the swift which will take a carrycot (or maybe it's just a new carrycot)

they have been taken over by phil and teds. They don't seem to do as many different models now

babybirds do a lot of the mountain buggy stuff

I see they have ditched the terrain models and I think you now have to buy the raincovers separately

Chariots are fantastic - excellent customer service and very good deals.

that's a shame about the raincover cos that felt like a real bonus having that included in the price

It appears the stormcover will also be an extra for the carrycots too

I can't do links, one of my local baby shops also online Trendy Baby of Clevedon, Somerset have MB as the owner Duncan bought one for his youngest after using a bug cam for about a year. He also will try to get stuff for you if you want all the bits, very helpful but the other women are rubbish!!

Chariots ATP were fab for us. Don't know if already been linked but they will do you a package with the bits you need, and not the bits you don't. They are excellent.

EldonAve - did you know the new model is made in China, so meant not to be as good quality? Try and get an 09 model. I guess most places still have some left.
