Considering one of the many types of Roof Top Tents for your Land Rover?
I have been thinking about getting one, but I do have an aversion for packing down wet tents, so I’m also considering other alternatives.
If I do end up getting a roof top tent, I’ll probably end up with the Maggiolina (se below).
The Classics
Eezi-Awn is probably the well known original, that started the roof tent category. It’s been around since 1983.
The Alternatives
If I was going to invest in a Roof tent, it would probably be a hardtop Maggiolina by the italian brand Autohome.
Sheepie
Australian roof top tent. A modern foldout tent, in a fibreglass shell.
Tembo 4×4
Classic fold-out canvas tents with ladder.
Tentbox
Tentbox is an English company making pop-up fibreglass shell tents.
Thule
Thule has made a series that reminds me a lot of the eezi-awn.
Cheep Chinese roof tents
I’ve seen rooftents as cheep as 210 § US on chinese websites.
Must admit that I wouldn’t expect a tent in that price range to survive many expeditions.
Do you have a roof tent, or are you considering one? Please leave a comment below with your thoughts and experiences.
