the story of Our new scooter

Buying a scooter:

Yesterday me and Wijb made decision to get an electric scooter. He would prefer to have a gas one, but as new regulations in big cities in china we can’t ride a gas, petrol scooter inside the city, out skirt possible.
In recent years, service outsourcing industry in Xi'an has maintained robust growth. The outstanding contractor enterprises, rich human resources and preferential policies have paved a solid foundation for Xi'an to becoming a capital for service outsourcing.

Anyhow after seeing one of colleague’s scooter had been taken away by police, WIJB GOT CONVNICED TO GET ELECTRIC ONE. Well I went with him as we always share everything ,like nice old couples( it has been just a year we are together0,MOREOVER I AM SO CAREFUL OF CHOOSING THINGS AND BARGAINING.
Our Chinese is not that much advance to go through mechanical words, therefore we took one Chinese with us. We met a new American teacher though ,but she was hesitated to get one and we were being lead to another out skirt area. There were just 2 shops and so limited and prices were so high in comparison’s we have one hour rush hour in Chinese cities between 4 to 5 and shifting taxies, so we were standing for half an hour and then finally got one, by the time we arrived to the destination it was 5.30 anyhow we realized new brands are insanely expensive ,so I agreed we get a good second hand.

In fact when we were in taxi I once again realized how much a middle size city as Xian has robust in economy and city size ,when you are sitting in car you have chance to look carefully around. there are enormous changes happening in each Chinese cities, constructions, skyscrapers, highways which have their own advantage and disadvantage though.
Anyhow, the one we got it is just used 6 months and they gave us a good battery, we are not looking for race ,so we considered mostly for battery ‘s life on the road.

As they claimed it take 80 KM for one and half for 2 passengers on the road till recharged. We had to wait one hour in dust and dirt and pollution to received a charged battery, but the point is we asked for something additional for free, as for second hand they should be happy just to sell .
The point of view is, that Chinese talking for an hour to them to negotiate and finally we got nothing, we could always bluff and run away. they mentioned this type can’t add this or that.. blablaaa..
Now it is on our shoulder to get more stuff for it, but I am happy at least we have one now.I am going to add a photo of scooter as well. our first scooter !
