Hi
I've joined the forum today. I have been a camper for years and last year because of our growing family we decided to invest in a bigger tent that we could stand in.
We visited Shell Island at the weekend and in the early hours of Monday morning 40 to 50 mph snapped the fiberglass poles in our porch and one of the bedrooms. Unfortunately the door blew open and ripped a hole big enough for an adults head to fit through. It also tore the mesh door and bust the zip.
My dilemma is this, can this tent be repaired? Is it worth it or should I cut my loses and buy a new one. This was only the 2nd camping trip with the tent and my little girl was scared but I managed to get her to sleep through most of it.
The tent is a Vango Colorado 600 DLX (our 2nd as the 1st was faulty)
If we decide to buy a new one which style/make are the best when it comes to standing up to the British Elements. I really want to feel safe with my little girl in the tent
I really appreciate any help you guys can give me x
