You think thats bad - £1049.99 here for a BL6!

And norwich camping are usually pretty reasonable

Worth remembering that Norwich Camping And Leisure Also price match. 

That will be the "book price" but they'll usually deal if you haggle.

I get the impression that tent prices next year will be leping up everywhere.  Good job I already own more tents than I can justify!

yes, but it's open - not an awning... I wanted an awning


I reckon they will bring one out in a couple of years. Get people to upgrade to the extension, then try to tempt them to buy again by launching the awning!

We currently use the Monty extension on out BL6 and it works well and looks okay. Doubt if funds will allow us to upgrade to BL extension this year

SNAP (ish) we paid £443 from them for the 2007 model early in 2008. Couldn't afford £800+ to buy one these days

We paid £540 for our Bear 4 at the end of 2009 and bought the side extension this year for £140 i think it was or might have been less. Anyway, bought it and skinted ourselves as I knew it would go up and everywhere else was selling for alot more. Glad we did as they did go up and on hols this year it was worth every penny.

It's definitely all down to the 'posh' campers. They should stick to their holidays in the south of France/India or safari in Africa!

I would expect a whole tent for the price of one of those side extensions!
