not bad, could have done with one of these in London last weekend. instead a 2.5 year old had to be carried round instead. As the damn buggy wouldnt fit in the MINI, normally we use her car for kid orientated trips...

Might have....

Some good news for people wanting this buggy!

I've just ordered it from www.kiddies24.com

Total cost including delivery was € 166.59 which is about £116.50.

I only just ordered it, so I'll let you know how the delivery etc. goes next week.

Good tip - thanks

Of course you could get one for free is you sell a few on eBay first for £230

Exactly what Abi said "buy a few and sell them on eBay".



But I didn't.

I'll let you all know how it goes, and what it's like when it arrives. We needed a second buggy anyway, and this just seems perfect for the job. And cool looking (for a buggy).

I hope the gas man isn't delivering it, or you will just find a card through the door saying you weren't in

Don't start! I went out to Halfords twice on Moday - 20-25 mins total each time. Both times someone tried to deliver a parcel to the house. Not the other 8 hours I was in - oh no

They only do that when they don't really have time to do the work (so I was told by the good ol' gas man who actually did the work... eventually!).

Allegedly the shipping company lost my order and 14 other packages from the company!

So they've sent another today!

We wait and see.....

Ah! Blame the shipping company!

Isn't that the net version of the cheques in the post?

Got it today!



Trouble is, I lost faith and ordered another one Yesterday, so may be overly Zapped come next week!

Anyway, I've not had time to have a proper play with it, but it's mighty impressive on first inspection!

You might find someone locally who's interested in taking it off your hands

"Location: High Speed MK" I hope it stays that way! Any party who campaigns locally and says they WONT change the limits gets my vote this time around!

Replies:
1) Can't cancel as it was on it's way via UPS before the first one arrived.
2) I hope so!

In car, and "boy on board" photographs...

Attached... photos of the Zapp (wheels and all) folded up and put in the boot in the bag that comes with the buggy. And a photo of Alfie (16 months old) sat in the buggy (with hood attached to the buggy but folded back) in the buggy.

After a day of ownership, two walks to and around the local shops, and an afternoon out with the buggy to the local fair/lantern procession/live music/switching on Christmas lights event in town, I have to say I think this buggy is fantastic! Really nice to use, light, very manoeuvrable, and despite the poor photo, Alfie seems really comfortable and happy in it too! Like it so far.
