Hi

I went to Attwolls last Friday to look at this tent, the 2006 Berkeley has a seperate groundsheet, the new 2007 version has been updated to a SIG. A great looking tent and loads of space for £219.

do you have any idea on the price for the 2007 model?

I think the 2007 price is £250-£260, there will also be an option to purchase a side canopy that reaches the floor with the 2007 model, an additional cost as they are being sold separately. Take a look at the Khyam site, the Indiana 8 is basically the same tent, more details on specification there, I also know they are calling it the Ontario 8 in 2007, that also has been upgraded to a SIG. and the mesh on the doors has been replaced as they had problems with ripping.

When I spoke to them they only told me about updates to the current range, We looked at a lot of tents, they didn't mention new styles. Only that the 2007 models are due in store at the end of Feb.
