So even if I don't get a ticket I still need a new 2 man tent as I'm off to another festival in May and my old one has given up the ghost.

3 man with porch (do you call it a porch?) are the only requirements. Any bargains out there?

Looks a good one that.

I like the red one better. Possibly easier to pick out amongst the sea of Blue & Green.

I have the Gelert tornado 4 which is only slightly bigger than the 3 (I've had that one aswell).

Very easy to pitch and does what it says on the tin.  Also, no guy lines needed, although I do pitch the two at the front of the porch (but very close to the tent).  Kept me dry during the continual downpour of 2007

For the kind of prices being quoted here, you won't do better than a Vango alpha 300. The inner is clipped onto the fly sheet, so goood separation between them, less condensation. I picked one up for a friend before last year's festival and pitched it for her...was quite impressed for the price (and I'm a tent snob)...

Personally, I like the double porch, can open both ends in the morning, instant aircon! I have this little beauty in orange...bit steeper costwise mind you, but it weighs nothing and since I have to take it on a plane that was a major factor...

Thats similar to the one I've been using for the past few years and me & the missus have had no complaints with it at all. Good porch size for storing 2 large rucksacks and the mountain of booze we take.
