Up until recently Halfords did Gelert tents, a good reliable make however it seems now that they are concentrating on their own make, most of which look suspiciously like Gelerts without the name on them. It's hard to see this one properly but it looks a bit like the Gelert Satellite/Cyclone 6 (see here) Having said that, for a Halfords make tent it is pricey, you could get a Gelert or similar for the same or less money and have perhaps more peace of mind.

Just noticed the height (tallest part) is 180 cms. This is exactly 6 feet, I think I'd like a little more, OH is 6'3 so would be stooping in this tent?

Post your budget,how many people to accommodate,length of trips you intend to do etc and i'm sure you'll get some good tent suggestions and maybe a bargain.
