Thank you all for the warm welcome you gave me together with information as I’m looking to buy my first scooter.
i have MS and am having to concede that I just can’t get around now, one day going out, means I spend the next day in bed which is just not living. I’m hoping that a scooter would help with the fatigue. I have asked for your ‘expert’ advice on one scooter, but I have seen this week a Roma Denver Plus scooter which was most comfortable to sit on and ticked most boxes.
Has anyone got any experience of these scooters or any information about them. I would be very grateful for any advice.
Many Thanks.

Hi @KatieC
Looks to be a nice little scooter and at a price of £699 it seems to be good value for money. My only concern is the 10 mile claimed range. My scooter is a similar Kymco Mini Comfort that cost £819 but has a 16 mile claimed range. I prefer the extra piece of mind that not having to worry about running out of juice brings. All in all it boils down to personal choice. Happy scootering.
Best wishes.

Hi exdvr,
Thank you for your reply.
I agree totally with your comments, and it was for this reason I was looking at the Roma Denver Plus, as this has a range of twenty miles. The Roma Denver as you say only has a range of 10 miles and I agree with you in that the extra miles gives you piece of mind. The Denver Plus I feel has all the things I’m looking for, but never having had a scooter before I was looking to your good selves to give your opinion.
Many Thanks.
