We were very fortunate to find a second-hand (though nearly new) bathroom blind for sale at a Steam Fair - in Baby Blue! It is enormous and is slightly plasticy on one side. My father had the great idea of rigging up some hooks and poles and creating a sun shade for the side of the 'Fold. It's a non-permanent modification, so we only put it out when we want to.

Re: Sun Canopy
Well done, what a fabulous renovation. I renovated ours once, but we now have a camper van as well and have been sleeping in that....However, our portafold, was far roomier and now, I'm considering going back to her. The only problem we have is that she's quite cold, so I'll have to find our how to make her more air tight lol!! Your Porty, looks superb!!! Congratulations!

Re: Sun Canopy
In terms of keeping the heat in, we've covered every inch in veltrim, including the seat box tops (which also stops the cushions moving). We've also invested in an electric fan heater with a thermostat that runs all night but we're thinking of installing a Prppex blown air heater for when we don't have electric hook up.
