In need of some serious help, don't know what to do.

Hello all and thanks for reading this thread!
Today I purchased a moped as I wanted it as it is a cheaper way of commuting to work as apposed to using our family car.

The moped was advertised in our local paper and I purchased it for £300.

Being a moped I assumed it would be a doddle to insure, how I was so wrong!

It turns out that it is a Chinese import that no reputable company seems to insure after trying numerous quotes.

The moped is called "Stomp asbo" the make of the moped is "Stomp"
It is a 50cc 2008 moped.
I am really panicking as to what to do from here because I know the guy I purchased it from will not give me a refund.

Has anyone else ever encountered anything like this or have any suggestions as to what I should do?

Any help is much appreciated.
