I like the MP3 300ie as it is relaible and cheap to run.It is a good scooter for urban use,but can be unstable at slow speed due to it's weight.I found the front wheels too small on country roads as they tend to catch in grooves in the road.The underseat and boot storage is immense.It is an expensive scooter that needs to be backed up with an extensive and serviceable warranty to be a serious player.It is Italian like the Aprilia/Scarabeo which has similar warranty and service issue's.It's once sold company doesn't know you.It is why dealers drop these brands which are quite good overall.I personally am loking to trade in my Mp3 300ie after only 6 months and I am lookint at a Japanese brand or maybe another Kymco Xciting 5ooi.
