Fantastic news guys, well chuffed with this news, Ive been on the go outdoors website and it says coming soon but it also says £20 cheaper than the usual price.  Does anyone have any idea how I can reserve one of these as I get the feeling its going to be very popular.

No idea, unless they will put your name down at your local store? Don't forget that the £20 off the usual price just means it's the £20 off the 'RRP'.... but nothing there is ever sold at the RRP.... I doubt it will go any higher than the current price, but later in the year might get discounted perhaps? We'll be testing the Vango porch tomorrow so I'll be letting you know how that goes and I'll take photos too.

Ok, we're back from our night away to test the Icarus porch.... have to say we were very happy with it. I'll do a proper review of the porch later and I'll post photos too. But these are our thoughts..... there is a gap at the side where it clips onto the tent, frankly I can't think of a way that the official Mojave porch will be any better but I will await photos from people that do buy it. Also, I'd say that I'd worry about rain water pooling on the roof of the tent where the porch rests on it - again this might be the same if we'd got the official porch. But that's the only downside. Colour is pretty much spot on and the size is immense! The usable space is bigger than the living area in the tent itself! Overall we're very glad we've got it and would definitely recommend it as an option, especially since it's cheaper than the Mojave one! Hope this helps!

Edit - photos now on Vango Icarus 600 Enclosed Porch review

If anyones interested, i have a Lichfield front extension for sale which fitted our Mojave 5 perfectly (which we've just sold). Its green in colour with 2 fibreglass poles and windows on both sides. It was designed to fit a Gelert Lakesbury which i believe is the same as a Hi Gear Mojave 5.
Its in good condition having been used just twice last year.
Thought £30 would be fair with either postage at cost or collection from Herts/Essex border.
