Note that the seatback doesn't fold down completely flat so it's not totally ideal for newborns, but it can be done.

Edit: just looked on MacLaren's website that they even have BMW M versions of the stroller, albeit at ridiculous prices.
I always wondered about this, isn't that like putting M badges on a car? What difference does it make that it says BMW, MacLaren, etc.

My advice would be to steer clear of this as it will cost 100's of k's in the future. We've met friends who a) never let their infant/toddler wear things that are not premium brands b) never accept used anything from friends

Hey want this Nike sweatsuit that my son outgrew and wore 5X? Nah. I'd rather spend $200 and get him a new one.

I also get it, though, kids really are spittin' images of their folks most of the time. And there is a certain lifestyle. One time someone though my wife was an au pair, and she laughed. This was because > 50% of the people in this play place are au pairs, and they drive S600's and Range Rovers and etc. belonging to the employer.
