Vango Faros III Air Low Driveaway Awning

The Vango Faros III Air Low Driveaway Awning sits at the compact end of Vango's driveaway range, built specifically for campervans and motorhomes where space comes at a premium. Its sewn-in groundsheet creates a sealed environment that keeps insects and drafts out completely, whilst the connecting tunnel features two access doors so you can reach either end of your vehicle without walking around outside. The AirBeam structure inflates in minutes using the included pump with its built-in pressure dial, and the 150D Sentinel Active fabric carries a 4,000mm hydrostatic head rating alongside ColourLok Eco technology that prevents the material from fading under prolonged sun exposure.

What makes this awning genuinely useful for touring is its versatility with different vehicle types. Pre-attached 6mm kador beading works with standard awning rails, whilst the included 8-metre over-vehicle straps, roof bar tabs, and pole-and-clamp sleeve mean you can mount it to virtually any campervan or motorhome configuration. The TBS II Tension Band System braces each beam at three points to stop sideways flex when wind picks up, and you can adjust these bands tight or stow them away depending on conditions. Diamond Clear windows let plenty of natural light through without that gloomy tinted effect some awnings give, and the mesh front door provides ventilation whilst keeping flying insects outside where they belong.

Practical touches include the SkyTrack II hanging system that runs along the interior ceiling, letting you clip lights and storage pouches wherever you need them rather than being stuck with fixed positions. The roll-away tunnel detaches using toggles when you drive off for the day, leaving the main awning freestanding until you return and reconnect. Privacy curtains operate on simple toggles too, so you can open them up for airflow or close them off for sleeping. The oversized carry bag gives you extra room when packing down, which anyone who's wrestled a damp awning into an undersized bag will appreciate. Steel pegs come included, though the bracer pole adds structural support at the front where most driveaway awnings need it. This awning works best for short touring trips rather than month-long static pitches, as the fabric will naturally wear faster under constant UV exposure.
