Duffnut,

Just wondering how many kids you have already that you feel the monty 6 will be too small after your new arrival.  How exciting, I can't wait to be pregnant again, don't tell hubby, our 1st is only 6mnths old next week. 

Best of luck for the forthcoming event.  38

We've been thinking about getting the front canopy can't make up our minds. It does look stylish with it...may be after a few more trips we'll get it. Does it really give you much more space though? Still think the tent is fab can't stop talking about how great it is.


We have the front canopy (see my gallery) and we're pleased with it. It looks like you get more floor space than you actually do when you see it in photos, this is because the front of the monty slopes, and your eyes tend to 'weigh up' the size of the canopy rather than the floor. It's still handy extra space, but I guess not much good in driving rain. We paid £75 for ours. P.s. love the tent too!

Cheers.

2 more to go with the one we've got. so a Camp bed and a travel cot will be a little cramped in a 3 berth pod. But the 3 bedrooms in the Nebraska will be great, and Future proof, as the Monty would have been if we just had the one more. But we don't like to do things by halves.

Just sold our Outwell XXL (shame, but too big) and our Gelert Vario 5 (nice size, but not in the same class as the Monty 6) We saw the Monty at a tent show, we were not sure if we would go for the 4 or 6 but after seeing them side by side there was no contest, the 6 won! So much space and the fact it had the canopy (although it is an extra)

Perfect for the two of us plus the dogs. Can't wait to get out there camping.

Hi

Just wondered if anyone had easy access to their Montana 6 and could measure the bags when its all folded up.  We're away to get one but will have to wait for it - wondering if we will need a roofbox in the meantime.

Cm or inches - don't matter.

Thanks a lot

Fiona

I have recently re-packed our Monty 6 and it measures 80cm long x 36cm wide x 36cm high.
