If you want to buy a scooter, buy one with character. This, for example, is a 125cc Vespa. There's lots on Donedeal.

50cc is not for sport purpose. I dont know what u mean by that, but scoot is for moving around. Easy parking and cheap to run.
Btw you dont need to modify aerox or katana at all to be fast.

I mentioned speedfight peugeot only becuase i had 50cc i had issues with brand and reliabilty. Overheating and electrical issues but thats related to peugeot not to 50cc in general.

I am not saying that 125cc is bad or better i am saying that for start and only for city commuting only 50cc is more then enough.

Well thanks for your recomandation.
You are right for city commuting only 50cc is more than enough. 50cc scooter is most popular with kids also. Now I have an idea about Peugeot 'issues.

I just tried the link from here and it worked so I'm not sure why you couldn't access it. Its an 09 Suzuki in the scooter section of donedeal for 995 if you wanna have a look, or pm me and we can arrange for you to see it.
Don't get me wrong, 50cc bikes are good fun, I've had katanas, aeroxs and driven others, but there's a noticeable difference between them and the 125. The 125 has better power, fuel economy and less maintenance. The 50 can be as quick but they had to be moded, remove restrictions, change rollers, power pipe exhaust ect.... This is all fine for a quick bike but it all shortens the life of the 2 stroke engine and was mainly done by young fellas on the garden so may lead problems, cross threaded bolts ect... Plus adding the smell of burnt 2 stroke oil to your clothes every day- all 2 strokes burn oil, its how the engine works

Thanks careful now sharing this information .Did you upload some pictures of your curtains, aeroxs etc.? But the minimum age for driving 125cc is at least 17 years and my brother is only 16 years old.

Where does your brother live?

Is is no good if we recommend scooters that you can't view, or buy.

My brother lives in the UK and take much interest to buy a scooter.

Sorry my mistake. He is 20 and he can drive too but we are out of budget before now since we are in the budget so I need your help to select which is good in quality and also not too much costly.
