Looks alright for a scoot, though the biker fraternity will slag the add for lack of safety gear worn by the riders and especially the pillion in shorts :frown:
I appreciate that it's a 60's retro look etc :thumbs up:

I actually think it looks quite cool, really liking the retro look they've gone for. Was a bit dubious when I first heard about it but looks like it might be ok.

Way back a guy was going out with the Girl a few door down and had a Vespa and around 2am you'd get "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" as for some mad reason he just could not go down the hill, he had to go up it then turn to go back down just so you'd get the full effect:smilewinkgrin:. It had a eight foot aerial with a tail on it.

:frown::frown::frown: Just looks like they have tried too hard IMO. If they had done a scoot without the futuristic look, and just to the same standard as a Mini, it would be a winner for sure!

Stuart - There is a guy who occasionally parks opposite my work with a vespa that has a huge aerial and a brown tail on it, looks quality!

LoL, The lassie two doors down from me is going out with a guy that has a vespa.
As you say, late at night......'eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee'

Would love one though, went to buy one when I was 17, bought a scrambler instead.

Like the idea of trying to get into a zero emmisions market, why not start the easy way. Small!

Is it closer to a MINI than the Countryman is?
