You might have a chance of finding a used one in good condition on Ebay or Gumtree etc.
I would also get the height and width of your tent and do a bit of digging online to find tents of the same width/height.
Even other brands if they are the same size, thats the beauty of tunnel tents, if width and height are the same then any brand will fit.

Last year I bought a Vango Calder 400 and later bought a front enclosed extention for a Vango Loire 400 which was exactly the same size. Did take a bit of research but worth the effort.

Contact Vango and enquire if there is an equivalent extension that could be purchased that has been manufactured for a later model tent.
