Hi iv'e owned a conway voyager and  folding campers it all depends on what your budget is but you can get some bargains in fact there's a couple of conways on ebay small trailer but beds zip up completely each side no room to sit inside but easey storage of the unit though. And the bigger the trailer tent the more time it takes to put up after all how long do you really spend in them on holidays do you really need extention on top of extention?

Or you get the larger ones with just seats in side like this one ebay good buy just  check the canvas for mold if there's no marks its fine http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-5232-2978-1/1?AID=9479574&PID=1428744&mpre=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Conway-Classic-2004-Trailer-Tent_W0QQitemZ270110724040QQihZ017QQcategoryZ112880QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-5232-2978-1/1?AID=9479574&PID=1428744&mpre=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Cabanon-Discovery-2002-Trailer-Tent_W0QQitemZ170102208486QQihZ007QQcategoryZ112880QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Then you have the folding camper's which are little more expensive but the kitchen and beds are all up its an individual thing really go and see some ive just given you some idea's to go on just put trialer tents in on ebay and have good luck just watch the canvas isnt damaged or moldy.

First decide what sort of camping you're going to be doing. If you're going to have lots of weekends away then consider a folding camper (FC), they are quicker to put up, the main unit anyway, and have a cooker inside that you can use without putting up the awning. If you have a couple of longer holidays and need lots of room under cover then go for a trailer tent (TT). There are some "in-betweenies" that fill the gaps between the two sorts (combicamp and camplet) but generally that is the different sorts.
When buying look at the state of the canvas as well as the running gear and chassis of the trailer. Buy from someone who is happy to put the tent up for you and answer all your questions. If you buy from ebay LOOK BEFORE YOU BUY!!!!!!
If you have any questions then ask away 'cos everyone on here will help and between us we know everything! (nearly )
