Product DescriptionWaterproof Drive-Away Awning for Van Life
If you’re touring in a campervan or motorhome and want extra living space without losing the freedom to head out for the day, The Vango Faros III Low Poled Drive-Away Awning is a practical solution. Designed for attachment heights between 180–210cm, this drive-away awning gives you a secure, weatherproof extension to your van life setup.
With a generous pitched size, it creates a comfortable area for cooking, dining or storing bikes and kit, while the sewn-in groundsheet keeps draughts and damp at bay. The Sentinel Active 75D fabric and 3,000mm hydrostatic head offer reliable waterproof protection in typical British conditions, and the TBSII Tension Band System adds extra stability when the wind picks up. Fibreglass Powerflex poles keep the structure strong yet manageable, with a pitching time of around 30 minutes once you’re familiar with it.
Diamond clear windows bring in plenty of natural light, making the space feel bright and open, while toggled privacy curtains give you cover in the evenings. Ventilation panels and a mesh front door help keep air flowing on warmer trips without inviting in midges. Inside, lantern hanging points and the SkyTrack II system make it easy to organise lighting and storage.
Multiple vehicle attachment options, including pre-attached 6mm kador, over-vehicle straps and roof bar tabs, give you flexibility depending on your setup, and the roll-away connecting tunnel means you can drive off and leave your pitch intact.
A dependable Vango awning for relaxed touring, weekend escapes and longer van life adventures alike.
From drive-away awnings to practical extensions, explore our range of Extensions & Awnings. Ideal for caravans, campervans, and motorhome adventures.
