Any ideas on a good but affordable porch awning for our Pennine Quartz 4. It has to be quick to erect and dismantle, have room for a table and toilet tent and not leak where it joins the camper.

Update

I have contacted Pennine and unfortunately the Pennine Air Porch awning doesn't fit our Quartz 4. We were informed by a guy on the last campsite we were at that a Quest awning could be made to work but I can't find what he was on about.
Can a drive away awning be made to work?

Any Ideas?

There are several awnings that will fit.The pennine one does not fit as the zipper is too long. The awning would then have to have a zip fitted onto an inflatabble awning to match the cabin of your There would have to be some adjustment to the awning connection to make it a reasonable fit.

Trailerman,

Brands? sizes? air? pole?

My thoughts as well, I would appreciate it if you could elaborate please being fairly new to this lark. I have spent some time online trying to find out info in this regard so I'm not just dumping on someone else.

blueexpo97 Not sure re the link as the Quest Easy Air £50 was for a Quartz 6 Pathfinder and ours is a Quartz 4. Pennine has assured us that the Pennine air porch 6 doesn't fit the Quartz 4 so it's probably the same for this one. Thanks anyway. Hopefully Trailerman will come back with more info

Tent Valet services have an inflatable awning which they reckon fits or can be made to fit most things

Right, the vango Sonoma 250 is the awning Tent Valet services alter to fit. My concern is the awning is between 268cm and 270cm (depending on the tensioning of the canvas) to the apex whereas the porch awning height is 250cm.   When used with a van the porch awning roof is flat (horizontal) whereas when used with a folding camper obviously it is sloped either side of the apex so is any height gained when using it this way? I will phone the company next week with my concerns and hopefully they will know the score.
