In good, if not excellent condition. Made by the Kiwi Camping Company but is no longer in their catalogue. These are around $7-800 nowadays.

We have changed vehicles so this is now no longer suitable.

It suits a van, hatchback or SUV. It is made from a tough canvas. The tent is standalone and has a canvas apron that attaches to the vehicle's Rear hatch or side door to form a sheltered entrance. So, you can quickly detach the tent and drive away without disassembling the tent.

I'm unsure of the floor space, but it looks like 2x2m and has ample height. It is roomy.

Message us to arrange a time to come and view it.

Price: $295

There, they're and their!

NumberWorks'nWords Kilbirnie

There, they’re and their are the big trio of commonly confused words with all three of them pronounced the same.
- There means the opposite of here; “at that place.”
- They’re is a contraction of “they are” or “they were.”
- Their means “belongs to them.”
