Well I've just got back from the Yeomans camping exhibition at Tretham.  Unfortunately they dont have any Vango Icarus on display (or in stock).  I really was taken with the nevada m but cant justify the extra £100 till I have seent he Icarus in the flesh.  Does anyone know of anywhere in the Shropshire area that have the Icarus 500 on display?  Also the Tigris 400 - Yeomans had the 600 up but really would like to see the 400

 

Thank you

I've just rung Outdoor Focus funnily enough - they did have one up - they sold it and took it down about an hour ago!  Typical!  Wont be getting any more in till June.

Have you tried the Yeomans in Wolverhampton?  01902 845404, WV8 2HJ,  its actually in Codsall Garden Centre which maybe closer than Trentham. 

We use it all the time as they have a huge ourdoor and smaller indoor display plus what the old guy there called Ted doesn't know about tents or camping isn't worth knowing.......its worth paying a visit just to meet him.

We were at Codsall today and I'm sure they had the Icarus on display.  Might be worth phoning them direct.  Have you tried the display at Stapeley Water Gardens?  Other than that the only place I can think of is Go Outdoors at Wolverhampton.

Like Petunia I'm sure they had it at Codsall.......the guy at Trenthm might only have said that to get you to buy another kind off them.

We went to Codsall garden centre on Saturday and they definately had it then. I think they had the Tigris 400 as well.
