You must be joking mate.
Look at Robert Saunders tents, brilliant, stay put, dry, and comfortable.
I have a Terra Nova Quasar (which is the K9s test ticals) I also have as space packer plus circa 1986 which has taken all that GB weather can give and I still use it.
50 quid, forget it,

Was this in response to my message? Not sure.
Eitherway, I was not saying that the £55 Vango was the best ever back packing tent but that it would be a decent buy and probably unbeatable vfm in that price range. Which is what I think!

AND all way over the OPs budget... (as for the Terra Nova - a lovely tent but ££££!).
I would have a look on ebay and see if anything suitable comes up - you never know! Other than that, spend what you can on the best tent you can justify (for a one off camp, I know you won't want to invest too deeply - that can come later
