Hi everyone I'm looking to upgrade my 5 man tunnel tent for some a little bigger and better. It need a to be at least a 6 man tent with 3 sleeping areas and a large living space. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Coleman De Gama 6, with added Extension? It won an award, and has steel poles as well.

At £245 plus £150 for the extension (brand new), not sure about the Coleman Da Gama 6 being a 'cheapish family tent' though. And I doubt it would sleep six. Different matter if a reasonably priced second hand version could be found.

Hi
I have a da Gama 6 and extension listed in the classified ads at the moment if it is of any interest. It is actually quite a good size for six I would say.

Only selling because after last week's outing, I have decided that big tents and crowded campsites are not for me.
