Marc Bolan Scooter up on Fleabay..... 20th Century Toy..... Customised Italian Lambretta TV175 (20th Century Toy), Marc Bolan UNIQUE SALE | eBay
I think that's a little unfair. handbags are generally good use to me as I can give the mrs my car keys etc when we go out and she can carry them. the scooter on the other hand is what would seem a sure fire way of blowing £5000 + just to make yourself look an absolute tool. dont get me wrong, you'll easily look ten times that amount in the 'tool' league and possibly stray in to the 'I'm a cock' category. hideous unless you like it obviously then I'd say........it's lovely
When it's broken down on the side of the M23 this summer, will it be the motorway police or the fashion police that turns up first..?
Kin'ell have you seen the span on the levers, you'd need hands like a giant to pull it up. I suppose if you could use the levers you would be strong enough to just carry the thing under your arm home, lol.
remember opinions are like arseholes.............everyones got one! Its his choice however put that much gold colour bling on a Ducati .............
It is just brilliantly kitsch and shouldn't be evaluated according to the canons of good taste. It should be in a museum somewhere, or in the Hard Rock Café. It's no longer a vehicle, as such. The odd parade lap should be as much as it ever does. Would I ever want it? Of course not. Would I like to see it? Sure.
lot of work lot of hours £6000...........still not hit reserve lot of cash for something that probably sit as an ornament
It won't sell, it's worthless. Or priceless, it amounts to the same thing; basically it's unsellable. Like all art, the artist has to die in a blaze of drugs, sex or scandal before the value goes up. Much like Bolan...
pointless crap for those with no actual biking sense imho. I just don't get the scooter thing, they are slow, don't handle and look like mopeds, plus often ridden by slightly portly 40 somethings who think they are on the set of Quadraphenia still lusting after some 80's lass with bleached hair....good lord. Everyone has an opinion, except in this case where I am right......
Phew, it looks like the bastard lovechild of an LSD addicted hippy and and someone who's recovering from a frontal lobotomy. I know we all have different tastes and I don't mind a bit of kitsch, but this ? I mean two wheels are always better than four but this is stretching it a bit. How could you open your garage door in the morning and be confronted with that ? You'd have to wear a blindfold and dark glasses before going within a hundred yards of it. I'd rather have that biker hating, self-opinionated Yorkshire twat Jeremy Clarkson in my garage. At least you could go in at beat the living crap out of him every so often. This thing would just induce vomit.
