I just found this for sale on Gumtree
A real collectors tent

A bit of a rarity with the vestibule fly rather than the standard. The vestibule flys were mainly sold by Paddies in Hobart.

I still have one of them, as well as an older NF VE23. Both bought from Paddy Pallin in Sydney when we doing the motorcycle touring thing for a few years. We got sick of rubbish tents that never lasted, hated wind, and leaked badly. The Westwinds floor tends to get wet in a few spots, given it's age. Have not looked at it for a few of years. They are a good little thing. I paid $740 from memory.

I would have purchased the SuperFlash myself at the time but both were good tents for our conditions it seems

I forgot to mention that condensation was a big problem with both these tents, more so the Westwind. It did stand up well in some seriously bad winds though.
