Well folks I've gone and done it, made a decision when I saw it today and now I have one lovely new Vango Aspen 700DLX  up in the garden. Was going to go for Outwell SV or Montana but when I saw the aspen and the price/ features/porch I knew it was right for us. Got it from Somerset Caravans who were great and the price a bargain I think at £299. Took us 1hr 15 mins to put up, biggest prob getting it off the ground but OH went inside and held it up while I went round putting pins in etc. I absolutely love it, the SIG sits really well, no raising off the ground like we had with the Nebraska, no fiddling to get it in position. Love all the windows, huge porch and the wardrobe rail in one of the bedrooms. Seems really well made too.

Thanks for all the input lately on here with my difficulty choosing a tent but I am now a very happy Aspen owner!!!!!

thanks everyone. It stood up to some really heavy rain here last night which it should do I know but after our experience with the leaky Nebraska I was still nervous.
