<font color="teal"><b>Not been out to the car this week to look at the indicators ..[:(]

I highly recommend this tent the one I have is a 4 man but they do smaller

just watch if you get a pop up some are crap and the first bit of wind

they will cave in on them self, mine is tested in a wind tunnel and did not fold over until 90km/h

my last pop up tent would have been flattened at about 30km/h

see this YouTube video to understand, it is not my make of tent but you will get the idea

My old tent went like the one on the right one night (it was not fun )

so look into them first</b></font id="teal">

Stevie

Love the tent and trailer.

Do you know if anyone has ever converted the back of TR7 into a trailer, you sometimes see Minis done but never seen a 7 done?

<font color="teal"><b>Why not camp like most of us?

It's a good campsite has all amenities, and you can join in on all the fun in the beer tent including the quiz

get to know more of us personally

I wouldn't miss the camping at the show and I drive about 350 miles

( over 6 hours drive )to get there. </b> </font id="teal">

Hhhmmmm? Sounds great, might just dust the tent off. I'll check if it fits the TR7's boot. Not sure about the missus, she's has'nt been camping since the kids were little! Cheers, Fixed-head.

Thanks for posting those photo's (later in the evening they seem a bit more bluurrred!) It looks to be great fun! The line-up of cars look fantastic, do they sort the lines by factory, body type or engine size? are there ever any sprints there? or rare models, like say, an estate version?! I'll start working on the missus about coming for both days! Cheers for now, fixed-head.
