I'd save up for a car instead, it'll be better in the long run. If you can afford to insure a car from a young age it'll come down in price quickly with any no claims you get. I'm only just getting my first car at 23 and insurance is £500 which is pretty good for a first car but i know it'd be alot cheaper if i'd have got my first wheels at 17 or 18.

That explains it then still would have thought it'd be hefty but alot less than a car i guess. When you getting it?

I've got a moped, don't regret buying it at all. Great to run to work and back from. Only thing is that in winter it ain't so fun!- Hurts like hell when you fall off to  |

Well the peugeot is out the window now :\ Getting a X-Reg yamaha aerox now i think Just a bit of a downgrade but atleast its something, wont have to care about thrashing its bollocks off then.
It'll have the same paintjob as this aswell

I do not know how much are these in UK but runner is the best option IMO. Not this one tho, it is screaming for a good service. You might end up giving more money for repairs than if you tune a mint condition stock one. Few extra pounds for a stock runner is not a bad idea. But try also to look who is driving it. You will know alot about the scooter from that.
