Have just bought a Vango Vista 800 and have been looking at some reviews, one of the two reviews on this site mentions a 'Sig', as a return to camping, from years ago exeperience I dont know what a 'Sig' is. Can anyone explain, do I need one, do I not need one, is it painful ......... !!!
Sewn In Groundsheet - as opposed to Zipped in Groundsheet, or toggled groundsheet etc etc. Means that there are no gaps at all between your groundsheet and your tent.
------------- Hotels Suck. Villas are great but I can't take my Cadac on the plane....
Sewn in ground sheet. Fantastic invention....no unwelcome visitors, no drafts or leaking in heavy rain...Once you have had one you will never look back!
------------- Time is never wasted when you're wasted all the time.
However I would still take another groundsheet[We purchased 2 Cheap B&Q Tarpaulins] to put under the SIG.
That way you have double protection from dampness and the SIG Remains dry and clean!

------------- A man may fight for many things. His country, his friends, his principles, the glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child. But personally, I'd mud-wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash, an amusing clock and a sack of French porn.
I would just say that it isn't the be all and end all and it is perfectly possible to have a tent which doesn't leak,isn't drafty and isn't invaded by plagues of locusts without having a SIG!
Just back from Lime Tree Park Buxton, wet when we arrived and at some point each day/night we were there, so pleased to have a SIG. Good site at Lime Tree Park, see my camp site review of it.
A day of all things motorhome and campervan. The show is held both in the main indoor arena and across the grounds. Catering, hot drinks and food options are available. Easy access to the site and free parking included. Win one of five pairs of day tickets
