Tents for Le Mans Classic camping

[Robin427]

Haven't currently got a tent to sleep in at Le Mans so thinking of buying one today. There are some great ones out there that would be easily big enough to park the car in, but I think I'll go for something a little smaller. Any recommendations - you can buy tents for a tenner online, but they wouldn't stand up to any sort of weather...

Robin,
if the weather is like last year, your only problem will be it melting in the sun

Robin, post it up in the cockpit and we will have a laugh!

Laugh at me? Surely not...

Robin.

My tent is a 5 man one where the 5 can sleep in one third of it, in the pods. The other two thirds of it is obviously covered and there will be a ground sheet.

There will be.. Passenger and me. Clarky and his Son, Ian Briggs and his passenger. This will still leave room for you and one if you get stuck. I'll be taking a few mats too to make it more comfortable and I have a blow up jacuzzi too with Champagne sideboard which comes with a leopard skin thong.

You're welcome to come in with us mate. There will be plenty of room, even for a bloke with a head and gob the size of yours!

Very kind, Paul, but I'm bringing the woman along with me and the site of all those Cobras might make her get a bit wild, if you know what I mean

Plenty of room for Mrs 427 too I'd expect. maybe you set your tent up inside mine?

Not sure if I want you and your mates watching a sort of silhouette show at my expense, but I'll pass the news along and let you know!!

Have a look at Khyam tents, they are quick erect (well not at my age) I got the freelander last year, excellent.

Agree!!

I saw one of these a few years ago. Family turned up late. we laughed as it was just about to rain and we were just finishing tying the strings down.

Buggers got theirs up and were supping tea long before us...

I thought they were really pricey though..
