Are there any? I've seen heaps where the capsule clips in so baby faces you but DS is much too big for a capsule.
Any reccomendations?

I Think the City Sellect has an option for the seat to face you? I know I have seen them at either Farmers or Baby City on display.... HTH

I love my Brevi Ovo
It's probably not going to be great value for money for you though, as it's a travel system which includes a bassinet for the first 6 months and a capsule. The stroller seat can face either way. I don't think I turned it outwards till about 9/10 months.

Farmers sell this one
My friend had it and I used it when I babysat for her. It's pretty cool.

I have the one that PF has pictured.... its Great for around town but as soon as you get on slightly uneven ground it wants to vear sideways, you have to steer it sideways down the road I have actually just sold it cause I hate it now! hahahaha

I actually previously owned that one PF, but i couldnt put it together because a part was faulty so i returned it. I would love a city select but that are like millions of dollars that i don't really have. Will look up this brevi oro thing though, thanks Milliemoo!

The quinny buzz can face you and also the steelcraft strider . I don't think they are hideously expensive either.

Bowie, the Brevi Ovo is mucho $$$ but I managed to get mine on sale for a great price, so worth keeping an eye on Global Baby's website
They sometime crop up on Trade Me, but not often.

Haha do you not remember me failing to put it together last time i had it? Might give it another crack, i dont think they are that pricey from farmers either, just a bummer about the four wheel business.

I have a Quinny Buzz (just brought it) And it faces both ways and lays back sits up etc. BUT my phil and teds dash is mucccccccch nicer to push! So dpeending what you are want it for? The buzz is fine in the mall etc but pi**'s me off going up gutters etc.
Have you thought about a phil and ted smart?? about $300 i think and not to big and faces both ways .. i can't remember how much it reclines .. wish i had got it over my buzz!

Oooh that might be a go Blossombaby, not too fussed about it reclining as DS likes to sit up in it anyway. Though actually having said that i do run with it so he needs to lie down. But $300 is more my price rang as nice as some of the other suggestions above have been!

I brought the 3 wheel strider from farmers but returned it as the seat doesnt lay flat, its in a permanant 90deg position..... And its mega huge, its so wide I dont know how you could take it anywhere!

I have the 3 wheel strider from Farmers and I love it. The seat position doesn't lay completely flat, but is still ok for a newborn (and was great for my refluxy bub). It is wide, but still maneuverable. My only criticism is the hard wheels which make for a bumpy ride sometimes (but as a bonus, can't go flat, and don't need pumping).
