Hi everyone
I'm looking for a travel system similar to this one I found on the web, something not tooo expensive and hopefully available in South Africa. It should be able to clip a carrycot, car seat and stroller onto frame. Any suggestions?

Answer
Nice pram. I've seen similar travel systems at Baby and Company. Otherwise, you can also try Reggies or Babies R Us (usually inside Toys R Us). Reggies has some really nice prams and travel systems at affordable prices.
I honestly don't think you're going to get what you're looking for, for under R3000. I bought a demo model Chelino pram with a clip in car seat three years ago and it cost me R1800 - that's AFTER the discount for buying the demo model.
You can try looking at bid or buy for a secondhand one. http://www.bidorbuy.co.za
**ETA: I found this on bidorbuy http://www.bidorbuy.co.za/item/27122026/Graco_Quattro.html - It's R2500, and not exactly what you want, but more affordable I think than a R4000 pram. Keep in mind you'll only be using the carrycot for about three months, then the baby outgrows it - if that helps to make your decision easier :)

Answer
I don't currently own one, however, I'll list some I have used:
Graco--pretty much every make and model including the doubles. I love that they have a lot of storage and trays and cupholders. Some of the newer, higher end models have thermometers which aren't always accurate. The doubles are very cumbersome and hard to push (the front and back ones, not side by side). They also aren't as smooth of a ride as some of the others, but they accept nearly every car seat to form a travel system.
PegPerego-I love the Pilko systems best. All the features of a Graco but a smoother ride. I do not like the Aria twin--basically a double umbrella stroller and pushes like a child's toy--gets stuck in EVERY crack and crevice.
Evenflo-You couldn't pay me to use an Evenflo stroller. They are cheaper than the Graco strollers, but bumpier and a noisy ride. The trays also don't stay on very well. I'm afraid it'll collapse when in use.
Safety 1st-Cheap, but if that's what you're looking for, they'll get the job done. Not the most comfy and not the smoothest ride without the bells and whistles.
Quinny- Extremely smooth ride, not a lot of storage. Very easy to maneuver, no extra perks (ie cup holder, etc). I've never attempted to fold it.
Stokke- Smooth ride, again, not really any extra perks, looks like a space ship
Combi- Expensive, yet cheaply made. I wouldn't recommend one unless you need something lightweight for a specific destination--the wheels don't rotate all that well, either.
Mia Moda-Excellent strollers, some are a bit cumbersome, but overall really nice. Seem to have a lot of storage and all of the perks a baby and parents could want!
Valco Baby-Great stroller and if you buy the single, you can buy an attachment for a double later instead of buying a whole new stroller. It's a smooth ride, but a heavy stroller.
Bugaboo- This is by far my favorite brand for something lightweight and versatile. Maneuvers easily, even with a heavy child in it. I couldn't recommend this stroller more often--I love it. The biggest downside is the lack of storage on the stroller itself and the fact that it doesn't fold easily. However, I have no problem leaving the stroller open.
