Hi great review. How's the tent holding up now 4 years later?

Hi David, Thanks for the video but 10 out of 10 really. If you're in weather like that for a small amount of time with leaks... through a double skin...? EVERYTHING gets wet. I love the design but simply wouldn't buy it because it isn't completely waterproof. What a shame. How hard can it be? Do you know if these issues have been addressed?.

They have a 2 year water tight rain warranty. But the rain fly only goes over the top and not the sides. Hence you need additional tarpaulin or fly for the side.

All these tents are just rebranded anyone.

Yeah these tents need an added fly going over the sides. The fly only covers the top

Pretty good, thinking about one myself, how long did it take to dry before you could pack it away? Also could you do a demo with the awning?

Hi All depends on the outside temperature and breeze. If you get a good day with a slight breeze at best 2 hours at worst 3. Plan to get it out next weekend to do a camp I film the awning it’s simple enough once you have done it a few times

Hi David this was a very useful video, great to get independent verification of products. Can I ask a question please. I am looking to put one on an identical Discovery 3 but I really want to have the entry over the rear of the vehicle. I have been measuring to see if it will clear the rear tailgate when open, do you know if it would? or do you know the height of the platform from the ground when it is folded out, my set up will be pretty much the same as yours for mounting so would be very useful to know if you have a moment. Thanks very much.

Dean Bratley Hi Dean thanks for your feedback. Yes it tried that configuration, it will fit, however you have to limit the upper tail gate travel otherwise it will not clear. This then defeats the object of the tail gate if you was to utilise the design. Hence the reason for the side mounted option. I will be doing a series of videos soon, I have mounted the Feldon to a bespoke built off road trailer, plan to do a big trip around the South Island to demonstrate the D3 capabilities and how you can have fun camping with a family in NZ. Not too sure if your on Facebook if you are sign up to NZ Range Rover and Discovery page, I do a heap of D3 tech stuff plus I will be doing a daily update of the trip. I also do some KZitem stuff all the best Dave

@@MrBeamerdave Thanks very much, yes I am on that group already. I bought mine (silver TDV6) in Invercargil and my wife and son flew down to Queenstwon, then we did a road trip back up to Auckland together, was a fantastic trip but now we want to get the tent on and go back down to see more of the area. will look out for your posts. Good luck.

There should be slits for the springs to go through at the back of the tent, the sam as you've got on the sides
