cant help I'm afraid, but think it is the new version of the diablo. We were very tempted but just not quite big enough, went for colorado instead. Have used vango a lot and always been pleased.

Good luck

We had the 2007 model which leaked and was recalled.  We had a look at the 2008 Killington 600 but after reading a previous post (drafts due to the internal door being removed) on here and seeing it pitched, we opted for the Hartford XL instead.

I must admit I think the Killington 600 looks fab but I had a couple of doubts.

Hi we have the Diablo 600xp and recently saw the Killington up at a Yeomans show and cant believe that they are selling it in direct competition with the Diablo. It looks from the out side like a Diablo without any innereds!!! The missing door makes it like a, a, well an open field!!! If it where cold It would give you little protection as it is such a large open area. I bet its nice in the summer!

It was me that posted about the missing door, it really does make a difference, for the worse.  I would def have a look at the outwell hartford xl pitched if you can, I think you will be as chuffed with it I as we are! It suits us and the kids down to the ground!
