Has anyone got the gold one and can post a pic please? Its an unusual colour but I think would look quite good with the gold and grey Ultima graphics on our van.
Would it be sturdy enough for use in spring and autumn?

Does it have roof poles or is the front semi-circular pole in view the only pole. If it's just one pole then it will be less stable. We had an original Outdoor Revolution Spacelight which was a single semi-circular pole (fibre). As far as we were concerned it was very unstable - and that is being very, very polite!
Savanne, if you get chance look at one 'in the flesh' before you buy, IMHO.
we bought one for occassional use and have found it to be a sound buy.Its easy to put up and pack away.It does not have rear poles but we found it lays against the van ok.The wind does flap it abit but we have strengthened it by adding pegging points on the skirt and extra guys.Its main advantage being the ability to adjust the height via the front legs for uneven ground.
This is a lightweight awning but it works well, we have just returned from a week in Southport where it was tested by the Autumn weather and it survived!
Savanne, re the Sunncamp which you were tempted by - I would now always follow David's advice and see stuff in the flesh first, if at all possible. We saw the Swift in the grey colour and really liked it, but I just HAD to have it in "gold". When it arrived the thought crossed my mind that somebody in the marketing department at Sunncamp is perhaps colour blind!! You will see what I mean if you check out the pic in my gallery - my OH refers to it as "the calf s**t awning"!
Actually, I still quite like it and it does a good job. But "gold", hmm?
