    I looked seriously at the Hannibal rooftents when still in the UK, when compared to the rest they just looked to be heavier duty & better made. I have a few bits of hannibal kit (boxes & bags etc) but nothing major.

    As I have the expedition rack, the chap I spoke to at Nene Overpriced reckoned the rooftent couldn't be fitted, but the awning had half a chance of staying put. I'll look at getting one of those I reckon, I'll just need to have a better look "in the fabric" so to speak at how they attach and see if I can come up with a mounting for the expedition rack.

    Jezza, 100kph winds and a rooftop tent! Was it like sleeping on a boat? Or was the wind from the bow? ;-)

    G'day Dave,
    Not as much as I would have thought The wind came from the side and then swung around to the Bow, the car did not rock much! I was very suprised at how still it was! we had a little bit canvas movment but as they are so tight it was minimal.

    Cheers

    We have had 2 occasions away, with heavy rain and winds and every time the hannibal tent as stood up to the weather, a few years back we were on the hill, at castle hill, 80/100K winds, yes it was a little noisy outside, but the tent and awning were still standing in the morning, other people were not so lucky.

    This year we were also in beautiful. Yunta poor conditions, but we were safe in the hannibal tent...
