I'm looking for tent carpet with the following dimensions, or something very close to this;
300cm x 360cm.

I'm trying to avoid paying top whack for a made for the model of tent manufacturers carpet, instead preferring either a second hand or discontinued line from any manufacturer.

If people can help me identify any tent that has a living area of the above dimensions then I can hunt around on ebay or preloved etc for a suitable carpet.

Did this successfully once before with another tent so hoping I can do it again and save myself some cash.

The manufacturer's carpet for the tent in question retails around the £60 plus mark.

Khyam Ontario 8 living area is approximately 3.7m x 3.2m so that might be suitable!

I bought one off eBay for £26

I have just bought this one of Ebay - New with Tags, cost £39 and measures 3m x 3.3m

Although it states it is for the Vango Nile 600, I plan to use it in out Vango Vista 800 (with only 2 sleeping pods up to give us more living space) and it fits almost perfectly

Sorry, don't want to hijack this thread, but could anybody think of a carpet model that would fit close to the dimensions of 2.6m x 4.1m? Have been hunting all winter and been unable to find anything similar!

Any help much appreciated.....

Luke

Argos had this one on for around £31 - it is 360x340. Unfortunately it has gone up again but you never know - just google it and see what comes up: http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-1428744-10294381?url=http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/7240784/c_1/1|category_root|Sports+and+leisure|14419152/c_2/2|14419152|Camping|14419397/c_3/3|cat_14419397|Other+camping+accessories|14419416.htm
