The Scorpion - anyone seen one?
Guys,
Whilst trawling the classifieds on PH I came across these:
SCORPION SPORTS CARS - THE SCORPION
Looks cheap and potentially fun - only a 250cc motor but weight is low.
Anyone have any info on these?

Discussed a while back - opinion didn't seem overly favourable IIRC

Oh right - hadn't seen that.
I thought they were UK manufactured.
It reads like they manufacture them when using terms like 'our new model' and 'built to order' - no mention of it being a
Chinese-take-away.
Will give it a miss I think!

I saw this one, but only after I'd accidentally stood on it's head and felt it's sting embedded in my ankle!!! There were a few
hours of cacking my pants until we found someone who knew what it was.

I thought for a minute that was a grinall scorpion - surely there is some trademark infringement in play!!
