Just ordered a new Vango Monte Verde 700 to replace an old Outwell Sunvalley 8.

It looks quite similar in size but has steel poles, so it should be more rigid in the wind.

Has anyone seen the Monte Verde in the flesh? I have ordered from the web unseen :)

I wanted a Bear Lake 6 but I thought they were too much cash for what I want.

I did see those images Helen, thanks anyway

It looks very similar to our outgoing Sunvalley which was perfect for our needs. It was just getting a bit too much damage to zips etc and drunken adults falling onto it!

The Monte Verde looks like an ideal replacement. Hope I am correct!!!!

Decided on the Nutria/Honey colour!

Correction I just bought one of these as well (smoke blue) I watched the youtube demonstration of the monte verde 900, I hope its not too big for me to put up as they've actually got three people erecting it. I was going to buy the montana 6 but by the time you add all the extras I want it was nearly £700 whereas this tent has a built in awning and camping world are doing a package with the tent, footprint and carpet for £510!

my neighbour has got one of these that he bought new this year.

He now wants to sell it as he found a bit extra in his budget and has bought a BL6

He has only put it up for a trial pitch, and it has never been used overnight. If anybody is interested, he only wants £370 for it, we are in Taunton,somerset.

apologies for hi-jacking this thread, and I hope it isn't too naughty to offer it here.

Rob
