I wouldn't wait as it's likely the prices will go up a bit and things the designs don't change significantly enough to warrant taking the risk.

You'd be better to hunt down the tent you want now and purchase at the current prices.

You'll struggle to get the Illusion this year because of the problems with the airbeams - any that were any good have sold out, and some of those waiting for replacements are having to wait for 2017 stock.

That might have put some pressure on the Vermont stock availability but there are some around - not necessarily that cheap if there is a shortage. It tends to be the stuff that there is a lot of stock floating about that goes cheapest.

In terms of which - have looked at both (friends have the Illusion, we looked at the pole version of the Vermont before deciding it was too big and went for the Kampa Croyde instead). If I was choosing between them it would probably come down to the way I wanted to use the bedrooms. For us the pack size on both of the air versions was way too much hence looking at the pole version. The Vango is a big beast when packed up and by the looks of it the Vermont is worse.
