Howdy folks, long time no speak!
I'm in the market for a new bivvy, looking for a 1 man job, rapid erection is a must It would mainly be used for overnighters, and also a week in France.
Was looking on eBay, saw the trident on there for £285, but after a quick search on here it didn't get too good feedback....
Considered the Armadillo, is this still generally regarded as the best bivvy?
£300 is probably my limit.
I'd be very grateful of any help - thanks.
edit: if you know of a cheap source of receommended bivvy please do share

i tell you what mate, i was out fishin the other night in those rediculous winds in my nash pre-98 titan with winter skin on, 
it never moved a muscle. 
bet you could save yourself a few quid if you can pick one of these up second-hand. 
ive had this bivvy since new and had it out in some serious conditions when lesser bivvys have simply crumpled..
i know its not a massive bivvy inside but what it lacks on the inside it more than makes up for in strength and reliability! 
just a thought!

Check out Kent Tackle mate doing the original Trakker Pioneer which is the same as the Aqua Pioneer for £299.99.Bargain if you ask me but I think they only have 2 left.Plenty of room and they don't come quicker to erect and made of Aquatex material.
