The other thing to bear in mind with scooters is that some of the so called luxury models are extremely heavy, which is a real pain when trying to load/unload the thing into the back of the car. Some of the cheaper/lightweight 4 wheelers are often a better option.
bought one for my dad off ebay (someone selling it locally, whose elderly relative had died). It had hardly been used and only needed new batteries after about 2 years of useage. Absolute bargain at £120 and practically untouched. Dad used it for about 4 years before he died and now it's sitting in my garage, battery charged, and is still working well.
There were lots of them for sale second hand when we bought ours for dad...obviously lots of people buy them and then unfortunately pop off before using them for long. secondhand prices are tiny compared to the prices brand new.
