i want to change the colour of my agility. now i know on cars in the uk you have to tell dvla of the change so i would expect that on a scooter its the same. how do you do this? or does no one bother to report the change?

Here in the states we just paint if they ask they just run the vin # to see if its the scoot you reg,
its the vin # that matters............just keep in clean and dont paint over the # and you should be good.

Theres a section on your V5 form you fill in and send off for colour changes.

I resprayed my red A50 to Polar Silver about 2-3 months after i got it, around March 2011, still not sent off the form. In fact i still havent even filled it in  yet :D

Thanks for the reminder  ;D

Nah, cant do that cos i did fill it in to register it to me, just didnt send it away again to tell them i changed the colour. Forgot all about it again till you just re-reminded me  :D

If you can just remind me every day till i do it that'd be great......... :P

lol you may have to do same for me if i deside on a colour. at the mo its silver except the front light panel. the past owner painted it floresant green. would look good if he could sprey. : :-\
 cant decide weather to paint silver again but all the panels. or go green and black like the"green hornet". yello and black"bumblebee"
fancy something diffrent from stock

Im planning doing mine Kawasaki Green with white wheels once the vespas up and running, and i said it 1st  ;D

Green and black goes well too. Also thought of bright orange panels and black or white wheels. The orange or green would go well with the black plastics i think. Even yellow would go.

Well legally yes but like i said i did mine well over a year ago and havent gotten round to telling them. Must be so when the cops are chasing me they can put out an APB....

"Yeah, we just had a report that asshole Reid is out f***ing about again causing chaos on Glasgow Road.......all units be on the look-out for a Red Agility 50, repeat a Red Agility 50",

"HA!HA!.....You'll never take me alive copper see, cos that scoot is Polar Silver suckers!!!!!"

In our country, you report a color change of a car and not a motorbike.. ;D


So, what color would you report for a 7-color Chameleon paint. Sometimes, it's blue, at another angle its violet or green.....?
