We've got a Sassari 6 and also think it's good quality, the Biarritz is this years model with a few minor changes.  I guess other than not having the well known name and supposed quality that comes attached, the subtle difference between the Biarritz/Sassari 6 and Diablo 600 is an extra pole over the sleeping compartments, which if you're tall obviously helps..... it's also cheaper!

I have a Royal Andorra 6 and it's superb, bloody massive and well made with a HH of 3000mm.  Very pleased and all for £200.

Does anyone know how much space they (specifically the Andorra 6) take up when packed?

Thinking of buying one and will have to watch the boot space carefully.

Loads of space - and it weighs a ton as well (well, just over 30kg).  If it helped, you could always split the bag down and carry the poles and flysheet seperately rather than taking one big lump - just spread it about a bit.  Tried surfing for you on pack size but didn't get very far - not quoted on the sites I visited - take it from me, it's large.

We have a royal sassari 6 and it`s been fab. Real good value for money in my opinion.

Now if only someone could make a tent that put itself up and down that would be bloody brilliant.

We have an Avignon 6 Plus. Marvellous tent. Well thought out design. Good quality. Only 'criticism' is that it has a groundsheet that could keep you amused for days trying to work out the right or wrong way to fit. In fact I think I've found 3 possible ways that are almost right, but that's all part of the fun.
