What a coincidence finding this thread. Not too long ago, I was talking to someone that had bought a mobility scooter a few days before. They showed me how it came apart for their car. They were going to take it abroad a few days later, such was the confidence they had in it.

They said it was about £350, (didn't mention the vat), they gave me the model/details and looked it up.

Today I contacted the company (lloyds chemist) they've emailed me this :-

I have to say I'm tempted. I can walk, but this last year has seen me struggle, so thought it might be handy for the days when I need it. Don't have a car, but would need to store it indoors/shed.

If you're only shopping locally I'd say that would be ideal. It only has an 8 mile range (unlike some of the expensive scooters that have 30+ miles range) but for the price, it will be hard to beat.

Hi OP,

Just to add, if you're going abroad and flying, there are a lot of destinations which now have hire places for mobility aids including scooters, as you will be hard pushed to find an airline who will be willing to carry it.
