Wanted family tent for around £100

Hi I would really like to purchase a reasonable quality family tent,as it's about time I got my kids out camping.
My friend is having a camping party friday night so ideally I'd like to get one before then.(I know its only march!!)
I am looking at spending between £80 and £130.
I guess it would be used mainly for campsites and festivals,but the lighter the better as it would also be god to chuck it in a ruck sack for wild camping.
I'm looking at them for between 5-8 people.
I know for this price I'm only going to get a budget one,but dont want to end up with one with terrible stitching and zips(so if you know any makes to look out for or avoid.)
Easy to put up is a strong feature!
Ideally a tardis,which doesnt take up loads of ground space,but is roomy inside!
Any advice/opinions or bargains spotted?(or voucher codes to go with the ones I've found)
heres some I've been considering.(I could go and buy the vango venture £500 for £100 locally,which would take away the worry of it arriving on time).

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/tents/preview.asp?id=183 I always check this site out for anything to do with camping. Great for finding campsites especially if you're looking out for something a bit small & out the way. Looks like mixed reviews on your tent, I'm no expert on them so can't be much help.0

I'm looking forward to my tent arriving tomorrow! Still browsing through camping stuff and saw this,

Thought it was an interesting different idea,so I'd add it to the thread incase anyone else is browsing for family tents.0 -
