During winter can be a buying opportunity to get the best price.

I agree this. Now, when its easy to check the market via internet, I have followed few years year round, for example used moped scooters. IMO, during winter, due to very small market in southern Finland, people do not tell scooters for sale, "because nobody buys them during winter" thinking. So only few buys/sells something, and you must do timing perfectly to get the pearl, -or even anything that is out for sale with sense.
So the market here is small, and there is a possibility to make good deal if timing.
I can do fast if neccessary, and, as said, I am on hold every day.
As I see it, the prices here will go up 10% or more in two months for now, used moped scooters, average.

I bought my used Like50 in june, did 4900 km with it till now, and now I bought a car recently to help my work. So I guess that next season will be few thousand km max, and that is a pity.

Great news KK, thanks for sharing.

Update now. After several ask for replying messages for injurance company, I got a message today. Halleluja.
1. The helmet. They pay me 200 € for that. Good enough. Money will arrive in few days to bank account.
2. Scooter. They have not received the estimation about fixing price from skootterihuolto.com, who tells its send around 26.10. via email. I just emailed again the ask to send it, I asked nicely.
3. I make plan B. I will go, if needed, to another garage to make the estimation. Same sh** in different package?
 Summarum: things are moving slowly from my point of view, and I have time, scooter is driveable as said earlier.
Wishing good weekend for fellow forum members.
EDIT 14.11.2021: Need to find new garage to start thing from beginning. Nearby, theres another seller with service, moposport.fi. I will contact them, if they can do the job instead of talking bs. Winter is coming, so it can be that only possibility to drive the scooter there and back is next spring, I just asked for the injurance company what they think about that.

Status update:
Estimation made last week, send to injurance company, not for me asked five times now he says check the spambox of your mail. Dunno why.
Helmet: they asked mark, model, year and price few days ago, told them now waiting reply also for that. Seems, it takes time to communicate via emails only. Will not use phone to mess things from written.
So, waiting now for injurance company reply, something correct can happen next week maybe, or not. Five weeks from the crash now.
It might be spring when this is done, I dont mind anymore at this age.

EDIT 28.10. Copy from the estimation arrived finally via email by its maker. Parts 900 plus job 600 makes it 1500 in euros currency. Maybe I will negociate some money, take them and run. But how much is enough, lets see. Definetly not more than the resell price, that is less than 1 t €.
 Things are moving forward, good.

I m expecting between 12 500 miles (20tkm) - 19 000 miles (30tkm) from my Like50 fourstroke, y2012 now 4600 miles (7400 km) driven. During that its once carefully enough repaird from slighly fall due van hit, serviced well like synthetic motor oil every 600 miles (1000 km), belts and rollers etc what comes ahead. Not that much use in wintertime to avoid hard conditions in use. And when less use, then gasoline is small engine gas for fourstroke, that will not cause problems in carburator like the basic 98e 5% booze can and will do. Basic sence and careness, lets say. Shelter from direct rain.
Lets see what happends, yearly speed can be like 3000 - 4000 miles approx.
My recommends to Kymco, built to last with reasonable price, basicly, I would say.

One good benefit for 50 cc scooter in Finland is ability to use bus lanes. Wondering, how many road users know that it is simply legal. Well thats another story.
Yesterday I was driving from Helsinki, capital of Finland, west to east and back, one hour per side. On my way back it started a bit traffic, and bus lanes helped also mentally.
When leaving home, this time it took 13 minutes for the first danger situation, when car starts to move forward on his red light and I am crossing green light among others. Luckily, had a free lane to move suddenly to, maybe I was given space from someone who read the situation well quick.
