Uncle Bob,
I had a bonza Coleman 2 man tent that I'd use when I was working as an outdoor guide, until some low life walked in my front door and stole it! I've looked at a couple of sites but can't find the model, perhaps they don't make them anymore? But... I did find one which looked almost the same, its a Black Wolf Mantis II, not to bad at 2.3kg, Kangaroo tent city says $319.95 retail but they have them on special for $205.99. My old Coleman I got for about $120 bucks on special... but that was last century!

well this is agood coleman value tent 2-3 person for $130.00 http://www.kellyscamping.com.au/p/963387/coleman-traveller-3-cv.html

Hi Guys, thanks for all the info. I found the Coleman Traveller 3cv and the Black Wolf Tanami relly look the part but it's hard to see so I will go to a store that's close to me that stocks both. The prices are good too, the Coleman at $140 and the Black Wolf for $10 more.
Thanks,
uncle bob.

Just found another site - Kangaroo Tent City and BBQ's, they have specials on the two tents I mentioned earlier. www.kangarootentcity.com.au

Hi Uncle Bob,

Take a look at the Campmor Safari Hennie. I have just purchased one and used it recently in some pretty heavy rain over an extended period 13 nights with intermittent heavy rain. They are made with treated canvas by diamantina completely waterproof and have a heavy duty floor which doesn't let any water in. Campmor are a South African company but they are collaborating with Diamantina in Australia for the treated canvass.

I am very happy with the tent. It weighs about 21kg and is fairly quick to assemble. I would say about 20minutes.

Interesting website Nuggets...I noticed they also sell "Slightly Soiled Tents".
Theses are apparently ex-hire tents used in North American Bear country and come with complimentary Slightly Soiled underpants

Yeah nice one MT if they had one of those in stock when I bought mine I would have grabbed it. Just a bit of spit and polish and as good as new . These tents supposedly get better with age the more you wet them the more water proof they get

I posted a link to the wrong website . The correct web site is below

Hi Guys, I have now bought a Coleman Traveller 3CV tent for $130 from Camping Megastore and they are on Ebay as well. It only cost $15 to deliver, so hopefully I will get it by the end of next week. This tent also has a LED light attached with it.
Thanks, uncle bob.

G'day Folks,
I have been out camping with my new tent and I am very happy with it, spent one night in it and they say it's a 3 man tent well I think it's a great two man tent and 3 children would sleep in it no problems. There is no LED light and I must have read that somewhere but it doesn't come with the tent. The tent has vents everywhere and well covered from the rain. The only thing is that it would be great if the bag was a little bigger as when trying to put it all back in is the tricky bit.
I would rate this 8/10, I would have given it 9/10 but the bag is a litlle small.
Cheers,
uncle bob.
