Re: What's the best (pre loved) scooter/moped thingy?

It's looking like my commute will be changing in a few months so that I'll be about 4.5 miles from work.

Whilst the obvious answer is bicycle, I know from experience how little fun that is in the rain or the 8 months of British winter we have to endure each year or when the missus requires me to shop on the way home or even simply coming home itself (as it's all slightly uphill that way).

I could use one of the fleet of SOBoxers, but knowing that the oil hardly gets tepid over that distance I don't think it would be doing them any favours.

So I've been thinking about scooterpeds, especially as there's some weather protection and underseat storage. I've commuted on a Melody Mini before and I'm not going to commute at sub 30 speeds again, so I started wondering about the slightly bigger stuff, such as a Lead or a Dylan.

What say the foak?
