Have seen a new one for sale of this old model. Wondered if anybody has one still or had one.

Looking to see if it is a worthwhile purchase being such an old model and if it was a good tent in general.

Interested due to it also being polycotton.

Anybody at all on the forum who has owned one of these?

Seen a new one for £290,but 5 year old model so not sure if I should go for it or not. Or pay the extra for a Outwell Nevada M. The Vango seems a good deal, with metal poles and polycotton.

Noticed the review by 'Stash29' and would be good if I could suss out how to private message them to see what they thought of it after using it for a while.

If anybody is interested there are still some Carerra 400 and 600 models on the fleabay for sale.

Although an old model seems a good price for metal pole, polycotton tent.

If the tent works well this season, then I will be looking at an Outwell polycotton upgrade .
