MINI2 - MINI Forum - View Single Post - The ultimate what puschair fits in the boot thread

This forum has been great and has lots of ideas for push chairs that fit in a MINI. However I think the Quinny Zapp is the only one specifically quoted as fitting in a Cabrio boot (right back at the start of the thread).

My question then, which models will fit the smaller boot of a Cabrio? To be specific, I'm only interested if the thing fits with the roof down (and ideally without needing the easy access mechanism - which requires the roof up). I am also in Australia which limits which brands are readily available but will be heading back to the UK in August, so that improves my options. Nathan will be 7 months by then so I don't need anything 'from birth'. We already have a Steelcraft Stridor (a massive beast, that we are very happy with) for use most of the time, in my wife's boring car (Toyota Camery). I'd consider things that fit in the seat behind the driver, bearing in mind I have my seat back as far as it will go. I know I'm being fussy, but that's me!

Potentials:

Quinny Zapp - I know this one fits from ChapSimon's photos
Britax Verve - not officially available in Australia
Bugaboo Bee - probably too long at 88cm (according to their website)

Am I missing any? Any opinions as to quality would also be appreciated. Thanks.
