Depends on your holiday really. We have come from a big tent to the Cali. We bought a Galli 2 as we have 2 younger children, car seats, bikes, wetsuits, surfboards, toilet etc and have tended to do a week in one place. We wanted storage, a drying room, covered social space and somewhere for a loo, so for that it is brilliant. It is quite hard to get back in the bag and although quick up and down, the pegging out still takes a while. I like the fact it is along the van rather than out from the side as it fits the pitches better.I also looked at the Kampa travelpod touring in a similar vein but went with the Galli as it is lighter(brighter) inside and we aren't using it to sleep in. We realised we were in danger of buying our old tent to attach to the side of the van rather than an awning!
However for weekends or mobile trips which we are doing more of we have a Quechua Base Seconds which I suspect we will use almost all the time rendering the Galli mostly redundant except for the long summer trip as it does most of the same things but is rather quicker to put up and down if not quite as stylish.
I looked at the Vango Idris as it is a bit lighter weight, smaller and has a removable ground sheet for grumpy sites. It wouldn't work for the 4 of us but would for 2.
If you have the wind out awning then there are always the 'sides' for that but you can't drive off and leave stuff in it for the day!
I am not sure you will have missed any Black Friday deals as such but we are in Low season so still some good prices out there. Once 2019 stuff is out might get some deals on 2018. Didn't find the show prices that special but you often get some extras thrown in i.e. Bedroom pods kador etc.
