Masekwm, did you manage to get another Montana? Did you bid on the Ebay tent you mentioned last week?

I couldn't source a Montana at a reasonable price and Somerset Camping didn't return my call after I left them a message. That pretty much made my mind up and the OH was giving me a bit of grief about just how long I was spending researching tents and tent prices.

I'll blame Mucker and Dozy if I don't like the Filey!

Masekwm, RTS5 and Dozy - thank you.

Oh, and it arrived today. Very quick service from Norwich Camping. I'm surprised the three boxes fitted into the car boot!!!

Won the lake on eBay for £410, used two weeks, seller seems good - selling s buying an Outwell inflatable. Picking it up this weekend. I also gave up on Somerset at the weekend so went second hand.

Bought the same carpet as you, it came today. Just need a footprint.

Bill is £620 at the moment including the front extension.

Only reason I went against the filey was the groundsheet being sewn in and the canopy not being detachable.

The thing I like with the Kampa front canopies, and this was a selling point for us, is that although they are fixed to the tent if not required they can simply be rolled back and tied up so best of both worlds and so much nicer than add canopies as you dont have gaps down the sides or material flapping on the roof
