Hi, I got the bugaboo cameleon and would recommend it. The frame is a bit heavier to use than i had imagined, but it is hugely versatile. I have used the pram part as a moses basket downstairs and basically wheeled the baby from room to room when asleep depending on where i was, very handy. In addition the car seat fits directly onto the frame of the buggy unlike a lot of other systems, so there is no need for a cumbersome travel system when out for the length of time that the baby fits into a group 0 seat. (we got a maxi cosy but i think graco fit as well). The whole thing is very nippy, lovely to manouver and has an easy action for flipping the handle bars around depending on whether you want the baby facing you or not, or whether you want to big wheels to the front or back depending on the terrain. There are lots of other bits and bobs that are good about it too.
The other one we considered was the quinny buzz, but the wheel base is much wider and we reckoned it could be a hassle to manouvere in and out of doors and around shops, but can't say for sure.
