Dom
Not read the whole thread so will post up what I did after lots of investigation.
Pram quinny zap which fits in the Elise as a lightweight pram.
Quinny buzz big pram (won't fit in the Elise) .
Maxi cozy cabrio which fits to both of the above prams and also the Elise and also can click into an ISO fix base.
For bigger seats Reccaro all the way.
The reccaro start fits in the Elise. The buckets in the Elise are narrow which creates a problem.
Macpac rucsack is really good too.
Give me a call if you want further info. We also have bits and pieces here that you are welcome to.

Took some photos when clearing out the study, nothing that valuable in there so rather it got used. Ideal for furnishing grandparents houses etc.

Heads up for the imminent parents; http://www.itv.com/presscentre/press-re ... 43dP3JdVic

Secret life of babies on ITV this evening, 9PM.

BTW, how's all the expectant fathers and mothers getting on?

We are a few weeks away from the big day now, so something could happen any time! Getting exciting - I think we have just about everything in place.

Most importantly, the elise has had a refresh; front end respray and some fresh parts, so is in good health, ready for being potentially neglected for a while. :blackeye ... still intend to get out and use the car, but unlikely to have as much tinkering time, so got all those things on that old "to do" list done and up to date.

Dom, I am loving that you managed to squueze the Elise refresh in just before the distraction and wallet emptying experience that is parenthood, like your style :thumbsup

Yep, nice one Dom, good thinking!

We've also got another one on the way in October. Niamh will be 5 when the new one comes along so quite a big age gap- not looking forward to going back to the sleepless nights and nappies!

Btw, I've got a pic of my daughter in your car when Kenny had it (she was about 18months or so I think). I'll dig it out- kids love Elises ;-)

Dom. I found that my two loved being in the Elise as new borns. I'm sure that they found the engine noise soothing.
PS they still love it

+1 for that

We also have a bucket seat which works well in a Corbeau Elise seat from age 2 or thereabouts...

Well, nine months after placing our order, the new model was delivered yesterday. We are both really pleased with it, it's exactly what we wanted, and when you see it in the flesh, the colour is perfect. There are a few features we'll need to get use to, but so far everything is working nicely. I may be biased, but I think she's a real looker too.
