Just thought I would let you all know I managed to buy one of these - thanks for all the advice on the previous post.

Now just got to put the thing up! Any hints or tips would be welcome!

Thanks again

Sarah

We have a Vango Yukon 800, which is very similar to the Horizon. Vango have a newer model now, called the Tigris. A video for pitching can be found HERE...

Hope it helps and good luck with your new purchase...

Definately a fair weather camper. I don't like rain. Rain + Tent = Trouble.

Thanks for that it's an excellent video - will look very professional if we can get it to go up like that without an argument!!!
