Has anyone here used the above tent in real UK weather conditions? I tried the Freelite 1 and found it let in water through the head end during a night of steady rain. Please only reply if you have had personal experience.

There are fake UK weather conditions? Only used a Hubba, not the NX 1 version. Definitely only a 3 season tent unless you can be very selective about where you pitch. No problem with rain but the high flysheet was draughty.

Certainly. In the minds of companies advertising summer-only as three-season tents.
