Have you checked what it looks like from the outside at night with the lights on? Despite your tints?

Not yet Roger but I will.
Top half will be covered by the curtain and we can keep the door half shut and lights off apart from the glow rope I have strung round the roof. it gives enough light to see by without lighting the bus up like a stage. lol.
We were away on Bute for a music festival last weekend, too wet/not warm enough to need the mesh so it didn't get used.
Campsite was washed out by heavy rain but I had the bus and use of the quad bike cos I was the bin man for the weekend so mud and flood water were not a problem. lots of gin palace campers getting stuck cos they wouldn't take a run at the mud hole and tried to crawl through it.
lots of tents flooded out too, poor sods.

Camping in Scotland!!

I made some loovre grills to fit in my sliding windows so I can have them open at night without getting soaked if those sudden night time rain storms came over , I have fine midge proof mesh on these , so with the roof vent open a inch , and three sliding windows half open each I can get airflow at night , and not get wet from rain .

I can take better pictures if anyone is interested, but these just about show the one in the sliding door window a couple of years ago in Polzeath

These are pretty good for ventilation.

I was thinking about one of these and I bought it, but then I realized it's very big. It's quite light, which is the good of it, but I was thinking would it be better to have a plexiglass removable pane, that you fit in the open sliding window and then you attach a computer fan on the plexiglass?
In theory it could be a nice idea as it's lighter, easier to fit and you don't have to make a hole in the roof, but I don't know if in practice it will be. As you said warm air rises but maybe with a fan placed at the top of the window and just for when you cook, air will be attracted towards the fan. you could even us it to exchange air when you use a portable stove/heater to warm the environment before going to sleep or after waking up.
