First impressions are very good, Vango have redesigned the stuff sack with a very large opening so the tent can easily be put back in , even when wet. 
The poles are colour coded, in actual fact it looks as though it would be impossible to mix the poles up even without the colour coding as there are 4 poles and only 2 different types, one type has an apex bend in it.
There is a nice repair kit included though I haven't looked closely at the contents yet.

​The weight including all the packaging paraphernalia is 3,873g so about 3.8Kg when I cut off the tags. 

After extensive use I cannot fault the tent. It's been used in driving rain, 56mph winds and snow. It stood up to it all. It's easy to pitch and for a two man tent is absolutely enormous. The two porches make the tent seem even bigger, two massive military bergens (one 100litres and the other 130litres) and wet gear can easily be stored in one porch and there is enough room in the other porch to store boots and cook, you can even get in and out of the tent whilst cooking.

The following video is clips from a few of the trips that this tent has been used on.
