I have a Maclaren Techno XLR buggy and wonder if I can attach a 0-12 month Maxi Cosi to it (a new Isofix type). Looked for click-on adaptors online but couldn't find any, maybe I'm not entering the right search terms... I know it's possible to put the buggy in the lie flat position and "secure" the car seat with the hood (forward facing) but that just doesn't feel stable enough for longer walks. Does anyone know there are adaptors that will work for Maclaren and Maxi Cosi?


Alternatively, does anyone know if there are any cheap and compact frames that you can click the car seat onto? That you can buy without pushchair seat etc, so just the frame? (of course I can buy a cheap second hand Maxi-Cosi-compatible pushchair and get rid of the seat but that seems a bit far fetched)

I have had a Maclaren and a maxi cosi car seat and wasn't aware that the car seat can safely fit on the pushchair. To the best of my knowledge the maxi cosi isn't designed to fit maclarens but I'm sure if you look on the kiddicare website or maybe ask in mothercare they can point you in the direction of a frame that could accommodate it.
Hi Sanne Panne. I think you have a phil and ted? You can get an adaptor to attach a maxi cosi seat to it, though I've never done it. Also Im not sure it's worth it because your little one won't be in that car seat forever. I don't think you can do it with a Maclaren, but it would be brill if you could.

jadal, indeed, the way I once put it on there (improvised) was definitely not safe. And thinking back, it was actually the M&P Primo Viaggio car seat from before we switched to the Maxi Cosi so I'm talking nonsense anyway.


edanna, I do have a P&T :) but never bring it with me in the car - we have the Maclaren in the boot pretty much permanently and in some cases it would be great to have something to stick the car seat onto.


Molly, great idea, I may see if I can find that frame second hand somewhere. Just hoping to find something cheap and most importantly compact as we already have that Maclaren in the boot too (for when we need to walk too much (or fast) for our toddler to keep up) and as we won't use it too often.


Thanks :)

    • Per Cllr McAsh, as quoted above: “We are currently updating our Enforcement Policy and changes will allow for the issuing of civil penalties ranging from £175 to £300 for visible smoke emissions, replacing the previous reliance on criminal prosecution. " Is anyone au fait with the Clean Air Act 1993, and  particularly with the state of 'Smoke Control' law and practice generally?  I've just been looking  through some of it for the first time and, afaics, the civil penalties mentioned  were introduced into the Clean Air Act, at Schedule 1A, in May 2022.  So it seems that, in this particular,  it's a matter of the enforcement policy trailing well behind the legislation.  I'm not criticising that at all, but am curious.  
    • Here's the part of march46's linked-to Southwark News article pertaining to Southwark Council. "Southwark Council were also contacted for a response. "Councillor James McAsh, Cabinet Member for Clean Air, Streets & Waste said: “One of Southwark’s key priorities is to create a healthy environment for our residents. “To achieve this we closely monitor legislation and measures that influence air pollution – our entire borough apart from inland waterways is designated as a Smoke Control Area, and we also offer substantial provision for electric vehicles to promote alternative fuel travel options and our Streets for People strategy. “We as a council support the work of Mums for Lungs and recognise the health and environmental impacts of domestic solid fuel burning, particularly from wood-burning appliances. “We are currently updating our Enforcement Policy and changes will allow for the issuing of civil penalties ranging from £175 to £300 for visible smoke emissions, replacing the previous reliance on criminal prosecution.  “This work is being undertaken in collaboration with other London boroughs as part of the pan-London Wood Burning Project, which aims to harmonise enforcement approaches and share best practice across the capital.” ETA: And here's a post I made a few years ago, with tangential relevance.  https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/278140-early-morning-drone-flying/?do=findComment&comment=1493274  
    • The solicitor is also the Executor. Big mistake, but my Aunt was very old, and this was the Covid years and shortly after so impossible to intervene and get a couple of close relatives to do this.  She had no children so this is the nephews and nieces. He is a single practitioner, and most at his age would have long since retired - there is a question over his competence Two letters have already gone essentially complaining - batted off and 'amusingly' one put the blame on us. There are five on our side, all speaking to each other, and ideally would work as a single point of contact.  But he has said that this is not allowed - we've all given approval to act on each others behalf. There are five on her late husband's side, who have not engaged with us despite the suggestion to work as a team, There is one other, who get's the lion's share, the typicical 'friend', but we are long since challenging the will. I would like to put another complaint together that he has not used modern collective communication (I expect that he is incapable) which had seriously delayed the execution of the will.   I know many in their 80s very adept with smart phones so that is not an ageist comment. The house has deteriorated very badly, with cold, damp and a serious leak.  PM me if you want to see the dreadful condition that it is now in. I would also question why if the five of us are happy to work together why all of us need to confirm in writing.             The house was lived in until Feb 23, and has been allowed to get like this.
    • Isn’t a five yearly electricity safety certificate one of the things the landlord must give for a legal tenancy?
