Happy Belated bithday from another MV owner. Fabulous pictures and great tent - so glad you like it and have no regrets. All the negativity about the vents when they really are not worth the airtime. You didn't mention it so I'm guessing it wasnt a ropblem for you either! You mentioned something you put under your air beds - what are they? Fiona x

hi brickiemum
Glad your enjoying your new tent. The pics look great, the kids looked snug as bug in a rug. -4 over night that's cold. Hope you had a wonderful birthday.

We love the look of this tent but as there are 6 of us we think we may struggle a bit unless one of the kids has a pop up. However beasts are hard to find these days.
Great pics and glad you enjoyed your trip.

Surfspud - we had 6 away last weekend but we were local and could take 2 cars! 2 in each bedroom with one spare as a dressing room - wasnt a problem space wise, you would be fine - seriously - but yes - you would need a truck or car n trailer to get anywhere! Fiona

Do you keep the "insides" inside the tent when you put it away, Brickie?

Thanks Fiona and Brickiemum. We currently have a 12 man tent and a box trailer so transporting it not a problem.
In our current tent we have the 6 berth pod for our kingsize airbed plus a dressing/toilet area which is screened off with the dividing curtain. Then our 3 boys have the 4 berth and our daughter the 2 berth.
Not sure our bed and the camp beds will all fit in the pods of the MV900, so we may have to rethink beds!

the triple pod in the middle would do a kingsize I reckon. The two doubles at the back will take a double airbed each though we use one for the loo/dressing area. The 4th pod which goes either in the living area or enclosed porch has straighter sides and will take a double.
