Steve,
you're right, these are not cheap tents, they are more akin to a cf caterham than to say a toyota aygo,... so they cost more.
I have had one on a mountainside in 100mph+ winds and it's still fine. They are made in the UK, and have fantastic aftersales customer service,
but they are not cheap.
As you mention, I also use go-outdoors, sheffield and Loughborough, and they are excellent purveyors of all sorts.

^^ what he said
they are mostly made in the UK, lightweight, strong and will last you years and years if you look after them (my mate hasa mountain one thats 15+
years old, very well used and still going strong)
I always had vango's before and been very happy with them (still have a couple that I'm more than happy with) but the terra nova's
are in a different league (up there with the hillebergs)
