Plenty of drive away awnings claiming they are universal, but if anyone out there has bought and happy with a drive away awning for a Toyota Hiace Regius with pop top, i would be happy to hear your experience?
More specifically, has anyone bought the OLPRO Cubo poled at just £250, sounds good value and seems to have some good reviews?

Thanks as always to you more experienced van owners and tourers!

We use a drive away awning, in fact we have two of them. Hardly ever attach them to the van though. We use them for eating within and to store our outdoor furniture and fishing kit. Both are Vango airbeam. One is a lot smaller than the other and is the flimsy material, it has never let us down. The bigger one and a stronger fabric is also a lot heavier to carry in the van. Both have their advantages and nothing says you have to attach it to your vehicle. If I were you I would look at as many pictures of drive away's that you can find on the internet and choose the one you prefer. The only thing you must check is the height of the van and the awning. Ours are both tall and we would not be without them. We have the two because sometimes it not just the two of us using them. Last week 4 of us and as the weather was fantastic....we never put an awning up.
