I've been searching all over for a reasonably priced Gelert Horizon 6 porch in Riviera (blue) colour. The colour seems to be out of stock unless you want to pay over £100.

Anyone know where there might be one available over the internet at a reasonable price?

I would not bother with a Gelert, full stop, we had a Michigan 8, it broke a pole every time we used it (and every time the friend we gave it to used it)! Bad design, the sides did not reach the ground, awful tent, we got an Aztec Cantera 9 to replace it! Much much better, my advice is forget Gelert, go Aztec, their tents have a lifetime guarantee on poles as well!

Just remember, if it is older than yours, smaller than yours but next to yours, there is probably no credit owing on it...

I've already got the tent and its brilliant. I'm now looking to extend it with a reasonably priced porch section but the blue colour seems to be impossible to get.

Bearing in mind that it is the 2010 version of the Horizon 6 that I've got, you would have thought it would be simple to get the matching porch.

Any help would be appreciated.

After looking through another thread I took the advice on it and bought a Hi-Gear Zenobia porch. Although it is a very slightly different shade of blue it is nearly unnoticeable and fitted perfectly.
