FIFTY QUID???
Get yourself down to Wilcos. Seven or eight quid gets you a tin of suitable paint. And if you're going to be posh about it, a new brush.

He's got a point though. So many that you see (on here at least) look as if they're trying out asian each other.
I'm getting more convinced that the back slapping types are taking the pi ss with some of them too, when they say congrats on a job well done and that's nice, mate. Very original.

So what, maybe they should leave the scooter at home next time, and take the car??
Live and let live, you don't have to like someone's scooter, but you also don't have to slag it off 'cos you don't like it, it's someone else's pride and joy, not yours.

Sorry Muttley, I don't mean you personally, just the collective you of anyone that partakes in this type of behaviour ;)
