I guess like me, a few of you experienced campers are still looking for the 'perfect tick all the boxes every eventuality tent'. I have a 2 man, 3 man, 4 man tents and a 1 man bivi. I've taken all my tents on successful trips, but I'm still looking for the perfect one. My 2 man is a geodesic but too small for real comfort. My 3 man is a tunnel, perfect size but a pain to erect on hard ground. My 4 man is also a tunnel, two bedrooms and even I can stand up in it, but obviously slightly too big for the bike. So I guess I'm not asking much when I want, no need, a large light weight 3 man geodesic tent with a big porch that I can sit comfortably in in my chair, and that packs down real small. Oh, and affordable. Where's Desmo from Cotswold when you want him?

Tramp,

I have a Vango Mirage 300+ kicking around the shed, it has a tear needing taping on the front sleeve & wants a new pole (about £25) it snapped while I was away so had to buy a new tent tot sweet.

It's yours for whatever the postage would be, semi geodesic, reasonable sized porch too

They look good and the Wickiup 4 looks about the right size. Only downside, other than the price, is pegging out on hard ground again.

Was looking at the Wickiup 4 myself but can't justify the price, however the Eureka lone tree 4 is an alternative same design just not so technical materials. the original price for the Eureka tipi was £270 but available just now for£189.99 here https://www.worldbackpacker.co.uk/campi ... oCTWbw_wcB
