Thinking about it and looking back at other threads here ours may not be exactly what you're looking for as it's more of a canopy, no sides to it? Anyway it's called a Sunshady Sun Canopy and it's on Camper Shop web site for £69.There's a picture of it and description. Hope this helps!

Thanks Bridie :-)  I googled that today,  a suncanopy would be nice to have (think we've pretty much shelved the driveaway awning idea !) so good to hear about all sorts.  17

We had an Apache drive away awning for years, chosen because it did not have too many pegging points! We bought a new awning recently, but have gone back to the old one. The difference is, now we prefer to use it "freestanding" rather than attached to the van. OH always used to detach the awning at night anyway, so it didn't flap and rock the van. Somehow it seems easier for us to use it unattached.
