Seriously? It would help if Fox actually turned around a put something out saying when they're expecting delivery - have one on order for ages now and I hate hassling the shop I bought it from as I know it's not their fault

Store told me I was the first one to get a new replacement when the are back in stock (,expected date was end of june) a week later the store called me to refund my money, Fox told the store that the next new delivery is expected at the earliest 04-22, I found another shop in Belgium that had 1 XD, the last one in the whole country.

No idea what the reason is the store doesn't know either, maybe something to do with the Ever Given.


If you are from Belgium/Holland and want the Frontier/Frontier x Carpcube have some in stock.(3x Frontier, 1 x Frontier x)

Ok so these have started to appear randomly and I have been thinking hard about buying one. Infact, I almost pressed the button on one last night knowing how scarce these things are. I'm looking at the XD.

However, I have the tempest 200 with all the bits - although it's a bit big for a few of the waters I fish, a Nash Mk3 2 man with the winter skin - a bit dated now and not as quick to erect/dismantle and a very old Powerplus Professional which ocassionally gets used in winter.

At the moment the XD, with the vapour peak and mossy mesh is going to set me back £730.

The supplier had 3 this morning, 5 yesterday.

Earlier this year I was also looking at the Tempest 150 (£799) as an alternative to the XD I liked the options on it, and the material.

If you had to choose between the T150 and the XD what would you do?

Xd over the T150 for me.

-Posts 554 you can see my XD with inner capsule (same space inside as the X)
-Post 504 Xd vs Termpest150
-post 458 for xd inside pics with bedchair and door height.

Edit: Do you need the Camo Mozzy Mesh full front? The Xd comes standard with a Closed/windowed and Mozzy mesh door.

I've gone for the XD. Bit smaller than my 200 and should fit comfortably in my target venues 👍

I ended up with the XD, vapour peak and the full width mozzy door. If I like it I'll pickup the inner capsule and overwrap in time for winter. It will be out with me next week so I can let you know what I think. Might have to keep the 200 for the odd ocassion the misses comes along but I might have to finallly flog my Mk3 2 Man double top otherwise I'll need a bigger house.

Didn't the stitching on your Frontier bust and you had to get a replacement?!
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
