Vango inspire

Hi we are looking for a new tent. We have a Tigris 800 at the moment, but would like a tent with the bedrooms together and fully zipped doors.

The Vango Inspire has caught our eye, the space it gives is amazing. But it is a huge amount if money. Does anyone have one? Are they good? Or can anyone recommend a different tent that would give the space, bedrooms altogether and fully zipped doors?
Thanks

No experience of this tent, it looks good. It will be a big pack size. Airbeam tents are much heavier and bulkier than poled tents.

Kalahari 10 here!! Comes in 6/8 I believe!

Thanks for the replies. Think the inspire comes in a wheeled bag so easier to move butnyes will definately be a big bag. Will have a look at the Kalahari. We are thinking of buying a small trailer as well.

I have looked at the vango but not used one. We have a kalahari 8 we brought it in 2011 and has been amazing and still going strong x It does 3 week long camps ( this last week in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 wales yay) and 4-6 weekends a year so well used and has endured all weathers from storms to being frozen! Very spacious two bedrooms as there are only 4 of us but when our 2 DS were smaller we all slept in one end comfortably. Worth a 👀 x

We don't have the Vango Inspire but we have another Vango airbeam tent, the Illusion 500, and it's very good. The Inspire is 2kg lighter than ours (but ours is polycotton), and they are indeed very heavy. But in a wheeled bag. They take a bit of practice to get back into the bag. The design of the living area looks similar to ours and I love the configuration. The rain door is a great idea as well (our last tent did not have one).

Thanks everyone. And Beeblot that's great information. I like the configuration as well the space in the living area seems really good and the bedrooms altogether is something we would like now with two kids.
