What's the difference between 2006, 2007, & 2008 Maclaren strollers?

So I went to Babies 'R Us yesterday and tried out the Maclaren strollers. Wow, what a smooth ride! I'm definetely getting one. My question is, is there any real difference between the newer and the older models? I found a 2006 on eBay for $100 shipped. It seems silly to pay close to $200 at BRU if the stroller is essentially the same.

Any advice?

Are you talking about the Quest? The big thing is that they added the carry strap to the 2008 version.

When I bought my P3 from albeebaby I asked about the older model year and was told the only difference was fabric choices. For me it was totally worth it to save 50%.

Good luck!

Thanks! The one I'm looking at is the Triumph. Particularly this one: http://www.albeebaby.com/ma20trstinpi.html.

Cute stroller...makes me wish I had a girl!

I'm not sure what, if any, changes were made to the Triumph. Call allbeebaby and ask, they seem very knowledgable there. I love their quick shipping too!!!

If you go onto Maclaren's site they will tell you the new features that are added for the 2008 model...under Features...it says that there are two harness options,central footbrake,buckle and hubcaps..as well as the colors/patterns...most of it is cosmetic..so if your not into having the latest and up to date then take the bargain..I bought the 08 Quest after deciding I wanted the recline and the extendable foot rest..I loved the 08 RaspberryTriumph and opted not to get the powder pink 08I just chose the 08 grey for the Quest..oh and also new is the sovreign lifetime warranty for 08 models..I looked at all the deals and stuff and just ended up ordering last minute..let us know what you get! I love the stroller! Very easy for Disney and airports and travel a bit tippy if you hang to much on so be careful..but everyone had them at Disney so we all must have the same idea of a great stroller!
