We are looking to upgrade our current tent, to get one in a Coleman Lakeside 4/ Vango Icarus 500 style, with 2 rooms at the back for 2 adults and 2 kids

We need the living space at the front suitable for the 4 of us to stand full height, and sit down together to eat at a table.

We want a fully sewn in groundsheet in the living area.

Ideal budget is up to £120 second hand, and there are a huge amount of options on eBay and gumtree.

Any idea where else to check online for something suitable, and also suggestions for a brand/ model would be much appreciated please.

Check out NearlyNewTents on eBay. It is the outlet for Vango, I got a brand new poly-cotton tent for £160 inc delivery. Should have been £700!

There were only a few on the site (mainly smaller tents), but gave us some good ideas. I'll definitely keep an eye on that shop for future Vango requirements.

We bought a Vango Samara 600 ( Vango website link here rrp £500) tent last night on Gumtree. It was purchased in June 2012, was used once last summer, and cost us £120 smile
