I had a Vango Killington 400 which I was very happy with, but last summer it suffered from leaks whilst camping in a very wet Cornwall  [:(].  Vango agreed to replace it, from their 2009 range, under their guarantee scheme  [:D] , however I am not willing to select a replacement until I have actually seen and compared all options. The tents which I am particualy interested in are the Tigris and Sungari ranges. To date I have managed to see the Tigris 400, 600 & 800 and the Sungari 600 (all at PJ Camping Romford), but have not found anywhere which has the Sungari 400 on display   . Can anybody out there sugest where I could see this tent, I live in the Bedford area?

Has anybody used one of there new Vango's yet?

I have used the new tigris 400 (pics in the tent review section) and am very pleased with it. Although it has not been used in bad weather yet it appears well made for the price and you could fit 2 double airbeds in the sleeping compartment although the living area would be cramped with four people. Their is only two of us so we have ample space. It was very easy to erect (15mins) and I could probably do it on my own if need be.

Thanks Chris, it's nice to hear a positive review. We were certainly impressed with all 3 of the Tigris range that we saw at PJ Camping, we also thought that the Sungari 600 was great, although perhaps a little large for the majority of our trips. We are still keen to see the Sungari 400 in the flesh before making up our minds.

Hope your Tigris lives up to it's promise and, although I don't wish for you to suffer bad weather, I would be interested to hear how it performs.
