Has anyone else seen this little puppy?

Look!

What do we think? I am sorely tempted after reading Hanka?'s glowing reviews...

Not a great sales pitch from the seller, so it could be a bargain - but seeing it in the flesh is fairly crucial.

Posting it here was possibly a mistake... But there's still time to edit the post

We have decided on a 325 and are saving up to buy a new one. Must keep my fingers away from the computer

I've discussed it with my bank balance and its said no :-(

And I've noted that it's in Chester. Too far away for me I think. Boo.

Go for it pb x

Chester is not that far for me, but hubby really wants to specify exactly what we want and I think I would rather get our specifications than get one quickly. Still having to tie my hands down though

I'm no expert, but I guess that's an older model awning, and also guess nothing can be added to it?
Whoever goes for it, they have to hope that the latest CA attaches to the existing zip (likely, looking at it), if the want to extend in the future... or of course, be happy to stick with just the pod and existing awning.

Gotta suit someone, I'd think.

Agree with Splatters though, re the sales pitch! Not great, is it?

Well the new price for the 325 c/w midge net and awning I work out to be £1500 after converting from the € price list.

So I would say bids will peak at £750 or so, especially as the age is not known, and I guess as others have mentioned viewing is a must if intending to bid.

I do like the Karsten Tents, and will consider buying one in 6 years time (2020), if our plans to get a caravan don't come to fruition.

By 2020 our Cabanon bought from new will be 12 years old and at a cost of £699 + £50 for the Sun-Canopy works out at around £60 per year. in fact might even sell it when the time comes.

I think someone on here mentioned that Karsten in Holland also sell used models, so could even be a worth making the journey across the water for buying one of these superb tents.
