Mark, I went on Tuesday. Not worth the trip for folding campers/ trailer tents. You will defo see a better selection at a dealers. If you haven't bought one yet, I'd go with the Raclet Quickstop as someone else said earlier, very versatile. Check them out on 

' Raclet.fr ' on google.

The video says it all. Not quite the luxury of Pennines etc, but more versatile than trailer tents I reckon. I've just bought a 2002 model for a bargain, but the new ones have simple, quick erect awnings.

You did say that money was no object. How about Ysin Opera? To set up just requires the press of a button ! no tent pegs required at all. Warn you now that it makes Holtkampers look cheap. take a look

I don't think the Opera is so good.

Not a lot of space, small single beds, and a big price tag.

If you want to see some thing different, what about the Aart Kok Livingstone? Very quick to put up and with a 200 x 220 bed and 1500 litres of storage space! Link

Mind you you have to go to Holland to get one!

Stuart, the Cocoon has 1000 litres of storage and the Livingstone 1500 litres and they both have a starting price of €9,995. I like the roof windows in the livingstone as well as the big bed.

Mind you I do think your Astro is very nice for wandering around in the summer. They start at €11,995 but you have to add around €2,000 if you want a kitchen.

Did not think to much of the Alpha, it is a bit heavy to manipulate and the bed was small and hard.Mounting the auvent looked way more complicated than say the raclet safari.
