As I am trying to convince my Oh that we really, really NEED the front extension for our Monty, I was wondering if any of you lucky people that already have it could post some photos (if you have any) of your Monty set up.  I need him to see for himself just what we're missing!!  Thanks

I dont have any pictures but we have the extension and its fantastic. All 4 of us can sit/eat/cook etc without getting the inside and the carpet covered in food/wine etc! We used to have a day tent and now have no need of it. It does make the tent even bigger mind you so we have sometimes been charged more than the rate without it.

Good luck Niki

Here is a couple of pics, the extension is invaluable a great cooking, sitting and keeping dry area. I don't leave home without it and it is easy to erect.

great pics irn bru.we bought our monty at the end of last summer and didnt get a chance to use it.in the meen time weve bought the extention and these pics have give us an excellent view of what it looks like.we were wondering if it would be worth maybe getting a small groundsheet for the area underneath the extention.any thoughts on this ?

Thanks for those photos irn bru, hopefully they'll do the trick lol. I think the extension would be great.

Does anyone know if the Montana 6 front extension fits the Montana 4?                    Thanks

It will be too big for your Monty 4 but there are some universal ones out there that should do the trick.

The Monty 4 is not as wide as the 6 and that is where you will have your problems heightwise it would not be much trouble due to the way it fastens to the tent.

Hope that helps

I was thinking of getting one of these instead of a utility tent, mainly for cooking in. Whats the chance of being charged extra for the extension ? I've held off from a utility tent for this reason. I was thinking we could compress it when the bloke came to charge us for the tent, then extend it again when it was time to cook....
(Am I bad?)

 Hi happyhiker ,

 We were lucky enough to get one of the montana 6 extensions at the beginning of last year , so are well into our second season with ours and we have never been charged extra for using the extension .
