So as 3X have gone into administration
https://scooterlab.uk/peugeot-distribut ... istration/
If folk have purchased/purchase a Peugeot Scooter the manufacturer warranty is with Peugeot but through 3X as their UK representative???
So will there be some cheap/discounted Peugeot Scooters for sale because of no back up warranty??
I appreciate you can go to Peugeot direct but as an Indian owned company with only the Metropolis still manufactured/assembled in France
Obviously when a new distributor is found then things are back to normal (a sweeping term in this new world order)

That's a real shame - they were a lifeline when I was riding my Elyseo and always had a comprehensive parts backup.
Peugeot's scooter lineup has gone a bit quiet, so maybe they won't come back to the UK.

I doubt that Mahindra will give up even the small foothold in the UK market that Peugeot scooters have.
Hopefully they will use the opportunity to bring the Jawa and BSA names back to the UK too. Equally hopefully they won't rely on someone like MotoGB as their distributor.

They'll need some offerings other than the rather tired Django to get started again.Capitano wrote: ↑Wed Apr 29, 2020 3:49 pmI doubt that Mahindra will give up even the small foothold in the UK market that Peugeot scooters have.

Here's hoping for a distributor that's not MotoGB, although there's not that much choice around right now.
I remember coming very close to a Kisbee 100 (what a cracking scooter) when I bought my Suzuki Address 110 - can't remember what swung it now but I was really impressed with the Peugeots I have had.
Previously they were having some bikes built by Quinqi in China - supplier of a good chunk of Sinnis' stuff at some point or another.
