This is the vango tunnel extension , its the only vango one that fits on the side of tunnel tents that has a closable front EXTENSION
This vango tunnel canopy with open front would also fit tunnel canopy
These are for the side of the tent, not the front. If you want a front extension, look at the outwell website and check the measurements of their tent extensions , like the montana, vermont, maryland typesthere may be something suitable for your tent there.
There is also the khyam sun porch, if you can find one in stock, and a gelert sun porch which is very similar to the khyam one which would fit .
These are all designed for the long side of the tent,
if you want one for the short front end , the
outwell montana extension might fit, just 10cm wider than yout tent. Though how practical this one would be if you have no door on the short end I don't know?

I think we may have our wires crossed here, with regard to front and sides.
I had googled your tent and The front and back doors you refer to are what i am calling the side doors on the 7m side of the tent, and I am saying the bedrooms are at the front and back shorter ends of the tent.
Therefore, the montana extension would only fit on the ends behind the bedrooms where there are no doors ,not over the doors, so not really what you wanted.
All of the other extensions and canopies would fit over your doors .
The tent you have is 225cm high and the extensions I linked to are also for tents 220 - 225 high, the canopies sit just slightly lower than the tents,so that rain can run off them from the roof, there is a flap of material that goes over the roof and guys out at the other side of the tent to attach them, so they are a flexible fit for most tunnel tents.The montana extension doesn't have this flap so wouldn't fit on over the doorways.
Take a look at page 6 of this thread , the bottom picture shows the vango tunnel extension fitted to the (long )side of the tent over the doorway . page 7 show the grlert porch too.
