The Vango Maritsa 700 had major issues last year with leaking, this year its loads better. I would email vango or call them, and see what they say. They may even offer you this years model, worth having a chat to them.

2013 Nothing as yet , trying to get new boyfriend to go camping soon. Selling Maritisa 700 , so we can put it towards a VW Camper.
How has everyone got on with refunds etc? I took my amazon back to towsure 2 weeks ago who sent it back to vango. Vango have admitted the tent us faulty and issued towsure with a credit to give to me.
Towsure wanted to give me another amazon but I have refused and told them I want my money back. They have said tent is 14 months old so I can't have a refund but I have spoken to consumer rights who say that I have 6 years to return goods that are not satisfactory.
I'm in the middle of an argument with towsure now, waiting for statement from bank to prove purchase price as have no receipt and then I will be in the shop.
Manager is speaking to head office about the refund to see what they say as she says she may knock money off the purchase price as we used it.
Vango have admitted liability tho and refunded towsure, they said the tent was faulty and we weren't to blame so I reckon that towsure are keeping money that is rightfully mine that vango have given them.
I won't be shopping there again!!
