What do you think of this?  I bought a Vango Diablo 900 from Outdoor World recently, came to put it up in Wales and have been sold the 05 not 06 version.  The difference is a skylight in porch and a few more windows.  Had no choice but to put it up and use it for a couple of weeks but am a bit miffed that I specifically asked for the 06 model.  Anyway went into the shop today and they said I should have checked it before I went away and will take no responsibility for giving us the wrong tent.  Do you think I have room to take this forward - we didn't check the tent but the details they gave us with the tent said that we should check that the tent was not faulty and that all the parts were present - not that the model was corrrect!!  Is this a trades description issue or am I just being too picky ie.it's my fault?

I would appreciate your comments.

I thought the 05 version had a skylight in the porch and two extra triagular windows. The 06 tent has a side door on the porch.

If you are not happy write to the chief exec of the company you should get a response then.

Thanks everyone for your comments, much appreciated.  Might just stick with the model we have been sold.

Cheers
