Not sure if the London bit is relevant but anyway, hit me with suggestions for a second hand commuter. Probably only for about a year as I try and make my way from SW London* to Chertsey in Surrey. Ta

*Been looking in Wimbledon but can broaden the search if have my own transport and tbh the prices and landlord attitudes thus far are starting to gall.

I've been doing north London to Shepperton a couple of times a week, Chiswick is half way, a cycle is your friend!
Overall faster than car or train!

HONDA ANF125, modern day c90 equivalent. Had a gilera runner 125 for commuting a few years ago was quite fun

I know nothing about scooters or motorbikes, but if I was commuting by motorised transport I would have one of these

whatever you do, DO NOT get one of these - driven by prats

Honda PCX - just sold mine on ebay for a stupidly low price, oh well 🙁

It's a perfect scoot for commuting, can't really fault it.
