Cheap Scooter?

I live in a small town and need something *very cheap* to infrequently potter around it(car not available). So I suppose I'm in Chinese scooter territory, if you had to recommend a brand/model what would it be?

The Taiwanese scooters are far better quality than the Chinese ones. Look out for Kymco, Sym and TGB.

Yes, don't buy Chinese, you might as well just flush your money down the toilet.

£499 on a piece of Chinese junk, or £1499 on a piaggio zip that will not only still be going in 10 years, but will actually have a resale value throughout that time as well.
