manufacturers of electric cars and scooters should be banned from claiming zero emissions, where on earth do they think the electricity comes from !!
Burning gas, coal and Nuclear plants - hardly zero emissions or good for the environment - its merely moving where the emissions occur.
Not going to vote, as I dont know if this particular scooter is better than another, but thought Id share my views on electric vehicles....

With the price of oil rocketing, this might become very hot indeed!

Yep would be brilliant if I didn't have to travel to Sheffield/Liverpool/Selby and Manchester regularly!

Cheap to run, but so is a 50cc petrol scooter and you can buy a no-name scooter for less than £600.
These need to cost less than £1k to start being interesting.

if it had a couple of spare batteries it would be handy.

I love the idea. Shame the government aren't running a scheme and subsidising the purchase of these. I'd buy one for the wife to commute to work if it was more around the £1000 mark.

I would love to use something like this but just not practical, 2 kids to get to school, one to get to college and my job is 20 miles away.

So how much does it cost to charge the battery...'cos currently my electricity bill is ridiculous...and I monitor my usage and switch everything I can off that is not necessary (except the PC that is)
edit just read further and they imply 40p for an 8 hour charge..
