Thank you to everyone who has helped us in the this task. I think we have eventually decided to go for the Sunncamp Global.

We are going to place that sells it this weekend so hopefully by 4pm on Sunday I will be the proud new owner of a Sunncamp Global tent - hip hip horrah!!!!

Good choice Jeff, that's a nice looking tent and you shouldn't have problems getting pitches for it.

FWIW I think it's a much better choice than the Diablo for a number of reasons.

Happy shopping and happy camping!

If you are going to a store that sells it, phone them and ask the price.

If it is alot more then go see the tent and if you love it then order it online and save yourself some money (to spend on other camping stuff of course lol)

Sometimes If you print off the details of the web price a store will price match it if their price is higher.

that is a nice tent, but can i suggest http://www.tents4less.co.uk/vango-albany-800.html, this is a silly cheap price and the ten is massive, a lot bigger than the picture looks, its a lot cheaper than you wrre looking to pay, very easy to put up, and im 6'1 and can stand in the middle no probs, have a look

I love the feature on the website for the Albany where you get a close up of it.

Personally I prefer the shape of the Global, I think it's a better layout that produces better usable space. For me the problem with the Albany type set up is that all of the middle section has doors off it so everything you put there is in the way at one point or another. It's a really good priced tent though.
