Hi does anyone know anything about this tent?
I have been offered one secondhand for £130 and I can't find out any info on the internet or on vango's web site.
Is this a good price?
Is it a good tent for 2 adults 1 child.
Etc

Incase it's not clear the tent in question is a vango Loire 400

I think that's a bit expensive for a second hand tent , do you know how old it is ? or how many nights it's been used for ?

Not found much in the way of info about it either , but I would say if there's 3 of you I'd get at least a 5 berth tent .

I take a 5 berth for me and 2 Lurchers if we're staying more than a couple of days , if we're not staying as long I take a Vango Ark 400 .

Thanks for the advise.
The tent has been used (they say) 3 times
It's in really good condition
The strange thing is there is no info on the web about that model of tent.
Thanks also for the advise on the size.

is this it?

Seems small for a second hand price of £130. Bargain harder.

Yes that's the one.
I saw that too. But that's the only thing I can find on the web about it.
Even the vango website has no info.
What would be a good price for a tent like this?
Many thanks in advance.
Best
Paul

I think Vango Loire is now the Vango Calisto which is £199 brand new. If that helps :)

I took the plunge and got a tent there is hardly any info on ; the Outwell Newport L. It was brand new and worth it.

So don't be put off by the lack of popularity. I'd be more wary of the price. The Vango Icarus is a great tent, I wore mine out! But when I needed a replacement I couldn't get hold of one. Saying that I got a fantastic deal on the Outwell and it's far better than the vango it replaced.
