Just bought one - wife wanted something larger than our previous Wynnster Satellite 6. Not used it in anger yet, but have put up in garden. Huge - but brilliant. Only took 45 mins to put up 1st time. Particularly like the SIG attached to the flysheet. Noy sure how i'm going to get it in the boot yet, but.......

Just been on our first week of the season to Somerset. Myself with the Breckenridge and my mate with his new Killington 900.

What a great tent Killington is ! ! !

Relatively quick to put up but took a while to get everything tensioned right.

Loads of space. My mate used the porch area as his galley / kitchen as he had the large canopy on the front.

The only thing I would say though is ensure you buy the "footprint". This is the purpose made gorund sheet that protects the sewn in ground sheet.

If you dont have the footprint you could damge the sewn in groundsheet and have to change your tent.

Although the Killington is in stock now the footprints are not in this country until Mid May.

The Killington is merely a downgraded 2007 version of the Vango Diablo 2006. Vango have now moved on to their new colour scheme and have decided to sell the Killington through retail stores ( I've heard Argos mentioned but can't verify it) and have rebranded it the Killington. Someone will shoot me down if I'm wrong but the major change from the Diablo seems to be that the Killington is flysheet first at least that's what appears on the Vango website.
