Not too struck on the Kymco, personally


Choices so far are between the Xevo 400 (they'll come down to £3250), or the Runner ST200 (which I can get for £1800)

I'm a bit concerned that the Runner might be too small, but I'll reserve judgement until I've seen it in the flesh

The Runner is small and the Xevo mid/large, but that's why you must ride them to make your decision. The very fact the Runner is small and flickable is it's appeal with a lively power/weight ratio.

If you only want local fun then that's the ideal use, but for more comfort and relaxed ride, with capabilty for longer jaunts, the Xevo is better suited.

It's the reason you have to consider your planned use and personal ergonomics rather than generic reviews.

There's more than that on here JP!

I will start a poll on who owns what car.
