Hi, I'm looking for A very specific tent, we are coming from a wolf lake 7 so we ideally want a polycotton tent, but my kids all want there own rooms! So vis a vis is what we need now.
We like the kampa watergate 8 air, but wanted to see if we could source this same style in polycotton? So far I've only found the concord xl which is discontinued, is there any others you know of?
Is there any issues with the concord xl? I may look for second hand you see.
Thanks!

There's been a Concorde XL on Ebay for ages (they're asking much too much for it). The problem is they use the 2013-14 airbeam tech which explodes when exposed to hot sun. I did a post about how to deal with it here but alas Photobucket has nicked all the photos.

I saw that, £800?
I'd probably go £500 max on that, that's all I got for my mint wolf lake 7, I know it's s different style but imo a second hand airbeam tent is far more of a risk than a wolf lake!

I reckon it's pretty much a dead cert for that one to develop problems. A friend of mine is after a PC vis a vis airbeam, so I'll be interested to know if you find one. Couldn't the children sleep in pup tents?

have you checked out the Kampa Studland?
Visited Winfields yesterday and saw this on show, could be another option for you?

I like the kampa studland my wife doesn't though, she's got the dam vis a vis style stuck in her head.

She may just like it if she saw it on display

Looks like our local tent shop is past it's former glory, so we need to travel to the shop in goldstone or Horsham now to see a better selection to get an idea.

Quick update!
Bought the Kampa watergate 8 Air today, got a great deal on it brand new with footprint & carpet included so I almost ticked off all the criteria! (Not polycotton)
But hey ho, I'm very happy!
