Hi everyone.
Names Ewen and I live near Edinburgh.
I don't have a scoot yet but on the hunt as I type. Struggling to find the right one to be honest.
Not wanting to spend more than 2000 and in an ideal world would like a 60's VNA OR VBB 150 or 125GT. This is probably a big ask though as all the ones I've seen are 2500 upwards.
I thought I'd found one but on researching the model it is more than likely an Asian import. I'm still trying to find out from the seller where it came from before I make the 6 hour round trip to see it!!
I'll no doubt be bugging everyone on here for advice etc before I take the plunge.

Thanks.
Any advice on what to look for to make sure it's kosher? Don't want to end up with an engine made of beer cans and forks made from cardboard! The one I was looking at has 10" wheels. Will It be obvious if its been a bad bodge job conversion??
Thanks again
