I don't think any other manufacturer has a tent colour scheme like my Vango tent..... It's black & mercury on the outside and has some bright orange interior panels

I have the wynnster mallard 6 in black and quarry and have to say its not dark inside whatsoever! Maybe im in the minority but i picked it as i loved the dark colours and it was up in my local camping shop so i saw it before i bought it! there is a pic in my gallery but not sure if you can tell how light and airy it is though.

I like em all, my antares 13 is 3 kinds of blue, I like the lightest one myself.  I do like my villa 4 colours, you can see the yellow from miles around although the little black bugs like that too!  I really like the orange touches on this years vangos, reminds you of the good old force 10.

If it was up to my son.... all tents would be in a camoflauge pattern. Green for boys and pink for girls. Bless him, he is only 4!!

Im with Kate
I prefer a darker tent, have never found it too dingy, but easier to get a bit of a lie-in in the morning without being woken up at the crack of dawn!

Most bugs don`t like blue, so that`s a good colour for a tent. Bugs like orange though...so goodness knows what Vango were thinking about this year!

I like the restful cream & green of the older Cabanons. They fit in nicely with the countryside too
