Welcome to the forum tinribs, we're a very friendly bunch round here. Just don't call them mopeds.

Ouch. That's you told Welcome tinribs - hope you enjoy your new LX when you get it - send us a couple of photos when you get time, I don't think we've got any LXs on our Readers Scoots page.

To digress further - the plot thickens. Aparently they've had my scooter since 30th June but its at another branch. Yesterday my brother popped into the branch that the bike is at just to have a nose. he saw a scooter that matched my scooters description but the reg was one letter out. he asked if he could buy it and they said, no its sold, the guys picking it up on saturday - coincidence? - I'm supposed to be picking it up on Saturday. they don't have another black one aparently. my bro noticed that the front wheel is all scratched where they have put a chain through to lock up a load of bikes and its got a load of bird sh*t on it I hope they are not giving that one to me! and why have they stuck L plates on it? maybe like you said, to hide damage..... its already insured as the reg that they gave me on the phone. I'm not going to accept this one on saturday. how frustrating! we'll see what happens

If you feel the need to name and shame afterwards, just don't post anything libellous on here!
