Last year I bought a new Vango Equinox 450 tunnel tent but due to also getting two wolfhounds it has never been used. I put it up in the garden when I bought it to check everything was ok and it been stored since then - never used.
It is the current style in light green.
You can see in the photos the tent fabric is still crisp like a new tent should be:

This is a tough and light 4 person (four adults easily) tunnel tent that's quick and easy to put up. The extra bedroom at the front would be great for storing kit and food away from bugs etc..
RRP £375 - I am after £299.
