Hello,

I think that Outwell did two extensions for the Virginia 5, an open one and an enclosed one. As far as I know, the tent (and extensions) are now discontinued, so sites like ebay will be your best bet. The only other option i can think of would be to check whether your local Yeomans have any knocking about in stock anywhere as I think that they were the sole stockists when it was initially released.

I and many other Virginia 5 owners found ourselves in the same predicament. Answer seems to be the Vango Icarus 500 canopy (2011) see pictures of mine here
