We are looking for a 2-man tent which needs to be lightweight for hiking, and preferably with a storage area for rucksacks.  Does anyone out there have any advice please?

Our budget is £150 absolute max.

Coleman have brought out a very interesting series of tents this year for lightweight camping. I've just bought both the Avior X2 and the Avior X1 (two man and one man respectively) for a hiking expedition later in the year. These are of the same base series as the Phad (the "eXponent" series) I haven't had a chance to try them out yet, but with an HH of 4000 and weights of 2.4 and 1.95Kg respectively, they also seem to be very well made.

 I also have the Coleman Adrenaline 2 which is fabulous with an HH of 5000, however it is a little too heavy for backpacking at 3.9Kg, it's a great tourer though.
