Hi
Im quite surprised that the quality of the Vango is better than the Kampa it certainly wasnt the case when we bought our 3 Kampas

Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again

And if you dont want the canopy up it simply rolls back and ties to the front wall of the tent and if you want to go the other way the vestibule extends and closes off the canopy

If you haven't parted with your cash yet then this may be of use to you, It has just over an hour left. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vango-Palena-600-DLX-Tent-Moss-2013-Brand-New-with-Tags-RRP-550-/271404422589?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_HikingCamping_Tents_JN&hash=item3f30f6d5bd#ht_1282wt_1081 Also, I've just ordered a 2014 Croyde 6 and scored for a free foot print ground sheet and carpet free of charge. The full lot cost £400, thanks to Camping Word and their half term special offer.
I did see the one on Ebay, but wasn't quick enough unfortunately. Have you a link for the offer on Camping World? That does look a tempting offer. I can only see the Croyde 6 for that price without footprint and carpet.

My guess (and that's all it is) is, you are looking at the right one... but a 'phone call may be required, to see if they can "throw in any extras"!
