            Might be worth checking the terms and conditions on the purchase of the scooter, some companies will give you a few weeks trial to see how you get on with it.
 once you find out the weight, see if you can find something you own around the same weight and see how you go getting that in and out the boot and take it from there."Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W. C. Field.0

 Pooky~~Yes you can have a short trial.
 Now I did not think of something of a comparable weight so thanks for that.

            Thanks Z.
 Will you kindly check that weight is the same too.
 Have to go out so will check price later. Big thanks.
 It's all the same apart from the number of wheels and the battery capacity (12Ah vs 10Ah).
 If you open up both in different windows, then click the "Specification" tab just below the pictures, you can Alt-tab between them and see for yourself."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

 If it's an "on demand" boiler like a combi or condensation, then normally they're reckoned to break after 7 years. That's probably why your warranty only lasted that long. It also means an extended warranty is probably going to be expensive."Follow the money!" - Deepthroat (AKA William Mark Felt Sr - Associate Director of the FBI)

            I certainly had my money's worth out of the central heating cover over the years. Could you use the comparison sites to get a good deal and possibly some cashback?I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)0
