What is the lowest the temp has been whilst you slept in your poptop?

Dont know the temp but in a pop top we bought 10 years back took it to cornwall one back end and there was seriouse ice on the inside of the canvas and the only heat we had was the hob,

I've literally just finished making a thermal pop top cover for my Viking roof. I'll take some photos at the weekend. Thinking of testing it at the weekend. Saying that we do have a toasty warm propex heater.

Wasn't it about -10 at Shirebrooke? I believe Martin and Michelle (RedWestie) were there in their Westie poptop.
Martin.

Diesel is an engine not a fuel.

I liked camping so much I went full time.
