German ebay! Cost about £156 including postage. You should be able to see it on the link below. It doesn't have a ground sheet or inner tent (they sell those separately). Our kids sleep in a £7.97 2 man tent from Tesco inside the awning, which gives more flexibility on where it can be positioned.
I really liked the look of the JK ones, because they run alongside the van and also because they have the bigger inner tent you can leave all your gear in there out of the way. What put me off was the sloping ends of them. So you lose some of the standing height.
The one I bought is a tunnel style the same as this one currently on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SKANDIKA-Bus-Vorzelt-XXL-Camping-Zelt-Vans-SUV-NEU-OVP_W0QQitemZ190007650411QQihZ009QQcategoryZ49766QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItemso?&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&siteid=3&campid=5339172918&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 you get the full height of the awning right to the end and the end wall can be moved in. I thought this might be good if it rains to have a bit of shelter whilst cooking. That's the one thing I didn't like on our previous tents, even though the door flaps could go up on poles to cook under it left the inside of the tent open to the elements. I thought it would probably be the same with the JK ones. There are pros & cons to every one. I like the Reimo ones, but price put me off.
Our van is a Caravelle so was originally a bus rather than a camper, so it doesn't currently have a cooker fitted inside. Obviously if you cook in the van this wouldn't be a consideration for you anyway.
Anyway wittered on enough. Cheers. Julie
