We have a 2 year old outdoor momentum slightly larger than the Momentum Cayman. Never had an issue with it. There is plenty of room in it. We love that we can use it for storage of stuff we don't need where were off out in the van. We then use it as a place to sit up in and chat at night if the boys are asleep in the roof. It's really easy to attach and detach. It's stood up in strong winds above the beach in Polzeth during February!!

For those in the market... Looks like they're back in at Decathlon. Now £159, so not quite the insane bargain they have been at times, but still brilliant. You're on to your second beer whilst others are still struggling with poles. :)

Had a look at an XL a little while back at our local Decathlon... very nice. If you get one, I'll be getting tent envy. :)

We have a Just Kampers Hamburg that we used with our old LT28 but it is really big. We have now got a T25 and want a sun canopy style drive away. I recon that a tent extension would work with some minor alterations. Has anyone tried this and if so recommendations would be appreciated. I think with some elastic to hold to the van it would be fine.
