Do the same though, much easier to setup on my own (or with one of my boys) than all of us.

Like the Isabella with the 'wings' on though, we've got a very similar Isabella be we've not got the extensions yet - thought it was big enough but ..... hmm........

I bought the extensions second hand, one is actually a Ventura model (made by Isabella), the other is Isabella. Unless your awning is very old (with different zips), then ensure you get the later model of extension so the zip works properly with your awning.

Given up with full size awnings, we've got the blow up Kampa Rally Air 390. It's Good quality, I put it up on my own in 15-20 mins, it doesn't mark/dent the caravan (our Ultima 390 did the opposite) and it's big enough for 4 chairs and a table plus the bikes. On the downside it's still expensive and if you want a really tight fit against the tin tent I would recommend the additional cost pole set, also buy the storm straps too!

I picked up a pair of the rear poles as well, they don't look particularly sturdy, but they do the job well enough.

Going to try & figure out a way of securing it to the (double) garage front this morning as it got drenched just before we packed it down last weekend & it's still a bit wet (had it opened up on the garage floor over this week, but a proper airing won't go a miss).

I purchased the Kampala Rally air pro, not sure if it's worth the extra to go for the pro ?, it's a different material , more like my Isabella awning material, rather than tent material.
It went up quickly , but as with all awnings takes a while to peg out.
I have noticed its a lot quieter when the wind picks up and it doesn't push the van around when really windy like my full size Isabella does.
I think the Isabella is probably redundant now.
