^^^ Great set up that. Bet the campsites wished they charged more for awnings when they see that baby go up. :D

Has anyone got experience of the Comfortz Leisure "room" that attaches to the fiamma awning? It looks like 2.5 as opposed to 2.6 which may or may not be an issue but is it worth the extra for a fiamma which seem incredibly expensive!

Cheers Spud.

Just considering a Fiamma Awning for this year as hoping to do a few Enduro's on the bike, but here's our budget set up - a £20 tarp

Here's another option for a privacy room for the Caravanstore:

Leinwand is a Spanish brand, and it looks to be a good option. It retails for about £400.

Geoff: what did you use to attach the privacy room straps my to the body of the van? You've abandoned the poles (presumably because the side of the van is curved). Are those suction cups with rings attached?

Good wishes from Leon

We have one of these - well, the awning part, not the VW (yes, sorry about putting that picture on this forum)
Can't praise them enough - a thought out design that's quick to put up and cheap.
Only issue is they sell out very fast.

I realise it's not quite what you were thinking of spud350.
Not sure how the front and side panels work for the Bongo - see the links in the advert.
