Mr Plod Posted October 16, 2007 Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 (edited) Hey guys. Basically I'm looking to buy an Aprilia RS125 2007 model within the next few weeks... The official dealers in London are charging £3,885 for the F/P version...I've heard that vehicles in general are much much cheaper up north (Yorkshire way and the like? (My dad said his firm went up north and bought a van brand new 2 grand cheaper than if they'd have bought it down here in the south!)) So if you could maybe be so kind as to look at the official dealers up north and see how much they're charging for the F/P version of the 07 Aprilia RS125 and let me know as if its cheaper up north then I'll be buying from there instead of down here.All help much appreciated.Thanks Edited October 16, 2007 by College Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will end up paying the same due to hiring a van/petrol no point really. plus it is a brand new bike so the price will not vary much unless used!!Tom Edited October 16, 2007 by Boss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Plod Posted October 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2007 Well I've been reading up... Looks like you're right Although I'm going to be 21 in December 2008 so if I take the CBT and then maybe an intensive course to pass my test it says I could ride a bike upto 25kws.... So yeah. Needs some more reading up I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I could take a Direct access course as I'll be 21 in 2008 so before the two year restriction ends so I might just do that. Need to talk to the dealer about it and everything really.Thanks alot for your help though, Much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
