Vango Venture 500 Tent. Fly And Groundsheet Only. No Poles. Some Pegs.4 Or 5 Man Tent

This hasn’t been in a major storm which ripped the tent, broke the poles or anything similar – we simply decided that we liked this tent so much that we’d find another identical model. I bought another from a local seller and we decided we liked the other colourscheme more than this one. We’ve decided to keep the poles so we can beef up a shower tent (they don’t tend to be strong enough to hold a 10kg bag of water suspended from the roof). As a result we’ve a serviceable fly sheet and bathtub-groundsheeted bedroom, along with the porch floor and bedroom divider all going spare. The taping isn’t in perfect condition, but there’s no peeling that I can see. It was recently reproofed and we’ve never experienced any leaking etc. If you have spare poles, this will get you a cheap tent which will serve you well for a few more years. I’ll throw in some pegs, but there may not be quite enough. I’ll see what’s in the loft. As it’s navy blue, it tends to be reasonably dark inside, so we found we weren’t woken up by early morning sun too much, and had to wake the kids up.

I’m happy to show it to you if collected, or will post at cost. It’ll be suitably boxed for transport. You’ll receive a good condition porch floor, a decent bedroom with divider, and a fair condition flysheet. All are suitable for their intended purposes once you’ve added some poles (and depending on what’s spare when I look in the loft, some more pegs. I certainly have a few available).

In our experience this makes a great short break tent for a family. For a week or more we prefer a little more space, but we’re picky. We used this over the august bank holiday when attending a festival, and it was fantastic. It goes up and down quickly, gives a decent amount of space in the porch, is a solid, stable design that feels good in the wind, and allows you to stand up properly. The bedroom has a divider, allowing hanging points for lighting, and nothing is broken, missing or ripped. If it weren’t for the shower tents that I’ve seen all having really thin poles, we’d still be using this.

I’ve tried to show random examples for the condition of the taping. There are a couple of marks to the mesh in the bedroom area, but as long as you’re not expecting a new tent, I think you’ll be happy with this. I haven’t tried to clean up any marks, so they may scrub off. It was put away last week when dry. If you message me after purchase, I’ll gladly measure the lenths of the poles, so you could make up replacements if needed. I don’t know if the buyer will be someone who has a ripped tent with suitable poles or someone looking for a bargain.
