Sole UK Distributors

Baotian UK are delighted to have been appointed as sole UK distributor and concessionaire for the brand.  Throughout 2008 we will expand our network of dealers offering dealer service with internet prices.  As this network develops, please do not be offended or feel excluded if a dealer does not yet serve your area. We will be happy to serve you directly with a home delivery.

New Models

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our new for 2008 125cc models. The Tanco 125 and Citbike 125 are now here.

Information

There appear to be cheaper bikes available on internet auction sites. Why?

If you are comparing our prices to internet auction site prices, please be aware that you will most likely be purchasing a bike that is not fully built and unregistered. You will need to finish the assembly of the scooter and carry out the registration...not always as easy as it sounds ! There is a £50 fee to register any new vehicle with the DVLA and £15 payable for the 1st year's tax.  You will also need to buy a number plate.[approx.£10].  Also look at the delivery charge.  There is often a huge difference.  We would also ask you to look into what warranty you will be offered and what aftersales support and spare parts service is available.

Please remember, our scooters are built, registered, taxed and running.  They are covered by a manufacturer's warranty and we stock a full range of spare parts.  Also we are real people that answer the telephone between 8.30-6.00 and don't answer to a cyber nickname. 

Unregistered scooters

No official Baotian dealer sells an unregisterd scooter.  Please be cautious if you buy an unregistered scooter as you may find you do not receive all of the paperwork needed to register it.
