First time Mum (due in June) currently looking at buggy options. Mountain Buggy Swift is one we are considering....otherwise the standard single Mountain Buggy, think its called Urban Jungle. What do you think is better?

I have the MB Urban (an older model) and it's great. I guess the Swift would be smaller, lighter and slightly more manoeuverable but I haven't noticed a problem with the one I have. I think the size would be the only difference really.
Think about where and when you would use it and that should help you make up your mind...and consider your boot space. I have a Holden Astra and the Urban takes up almost all the room.
I don't think you'd regret getting either of them though.

I also got the carrycot to go with mine and it was awesome. It was so nice to be able to see my baby when he was younger and it doubled as a travel cot when staying with family/friends or if we stayed out later than expected and needed somewhere for DS to sleep.
You can get them reasonably cheap secondhand on trademe in really good condition, often only used on one baby.

Congratulations on your baby!!

We have the MB Swift and I love it! I'm quite small, so the lighter weight smaller pram was a better option for me.
Up the Duff with #2. DS turns 3 in July.

I also have the swift and so far so good!! The only issue I can see is if DS is a big boy then he probably wouldn't fit in it as long as the urban.

I have the swift and have found its small size great in shops and its really maneuverable. I had the carrycot which was great. The only thing is I am a bit concerned about is DS getting too tall for it and hes currently just under the 50th percentile for length.
