Vango TBS Equinox 350 Tent For Sale in UK
Quality lightweight, 4 Season, 3.5 man tunnel tent for sale in Worcester, UK.

Excellent condition, only used 4 or 5 times and has *always* been thoroughly dried out before storing and well cared for. I used this for 2-up motorcycle camping and it has plenty of space for storing bike gear. Will sleep 3 + gear in good comfort or 2 + gear in palacial luxury. Tension Band System makes this tent excellent in strong wind and bad weather, unlike 'normal' tunnel designs.

Here is a link to the latest model, mine is the same but doesn't have the small windows under the vents (look under 'all season tents'):

I have pictures (taken last weekend) I can email if you contact me and if you are local you are welcome to come and see it for real.

Only selling due to purchase of a new smaller tent for upcoming long solo off road trip.

120UKP or near offer (250UKP new)

Andy.

P.S. There were two of us at the UK HU rally with this tent.

Hi Andy -
Can you measure the packed size of your tent, if still for sale? I was looking at the Equi 250, but....

On the Vango web site it gives the 350 as 55x22cm and the 250 as 52x20cm..not a lot in it.

I'll measure mine anyway in case the new model is different.

Cheers Andy.

Mine comes in at 60x22cm although there is some give in the bag so I think the manufacturer figure is about right if you folded it 'shorter'. If you used a couple of compression straps I think you could get it down below the 55x22.

Cheers Andy.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
