Re: New book on British scoots.
i have to agree with pikey
the transport museum is great and the scooter bit is a very small part of it
we had three hours on the carpark and didnt have time for a cuppa as we spent the whole three hours in the museum

Re: New book on British scoots.
Did we ever make a good scoot?
I did like a couple of German ones, but buying German stuff was not the done thing in the 50's-60's.
