About this product
This is the straightforward version of the vehicle side awning – the same 200 x 250 cm of cover and the same 420D ripstop polyoxford fabric rated to 3,000 mm, supplied in a heavy-duty 600 g PVC travel cover rather than an aluminium hard case.
Five square metres is enough to change how a camp works. It puts the table, the chairs and the cooking area out of the sun through the middle of the day and out of the rain when a storm arrives, and because it is attached to the vehicle it goes up wherever you stop rather than needing a suitable pitch. On a beach at Kigamboni, at a camp in Mikumi or beside a roadside stall, it is the same two minutes of work.
The frame is aluminium with 22 mm and 25 mm telescopic poles adjusting from 160 to 200 cm. Setting the poles at different heights is worth learning: high on the vehicle side and lower on the outside sheds rain off the edge instead of pooling it, and lowering the windward pole cuts the draught coming underneath.
The PVC cover is waterproof and heavy enough for normal use. If the vehicle lives outdoors year-round or spends its time on narrow tracks with branches, the aluminium hard-case version protects the fabric better – but for most people this is the sensible choice, and it puts less weight on the roof.
