Anyone got or had a raclet apocalypse trailer tent?

If so tell me about it!
There’s one for sale locally for £200 and I’m very tempted!

Are you sure it's the right name as Google couldn't get any results (apart from your mn post).

We had a Racket TT - sorry can't remember the range. Really well made and we enjoyed 3yrs of holidays before upgrading to a caravan.

Things to consider:
Check condition of the canvas and tyres.

See what it comes with, some people will be giving up camping and you'll get lots of extras.

Get lots of instructions on how to put it up, ours had a huge awning with lots of poles - was a pain to do after a long drive with kids, but worth it for the space.

You will need a tow bar (obviously) check out the cost of getting one on your car as they can be really expensive (ours has the wiring ring for our car so it plugs into the electronics, turns off rear sensors, stiffens suspension, etc. I would guess most TT are light enough for most cars, but you want to practice driving and manovering it

Think where you can store it.

We really enjoyed our TT, much better than traditional camping but we now prefer the ease and comfort of caravanning (a lot of people seem to progress onto a caravan).

Thanks, I’ve seen it advertised through a friend of a friend and that what they called it.

I had thought about some of this things but definitely not all so thank you. The difficulty at the moment is that we can’t travel far enough to see it (Wales) so I don’t think it would be sensible to go any further with my plan while we’re still under such tight restrictions.

Keep an eye on ebay/gumtree and you'll see them come up.

The guy who bought ours was here for nearly 2 hours learning how to put up/down, creating his own guide. So you definitely want to be able to do that.

You’re right.
If it’s still available when restrictions here are relaxed perhaps we’ll think again.
