Peter David, Lives locally but found him through Ebay. He bought some batteries off me and I bought a second scooter off him. He buys up old scooters and uses them for parts or else repairs and sells them on. He saved me a lot of money replacing the motor on my big scooter. I can give you his phone number if you want.

He doesn't make a large profit. He does it as a sideline. I think your scooter has a control box problem as I have had 2 scooters with that problem. It may take him a while to fix it if he doesn't have the parts in.

Clark and Partners in Sheffield 13 are a great company who might be able to help out. They sell mobility scooters and also have a workshop.

do a google search for "clark and partners" to find them

GL note

I'd rather that personal numbers weren't put up. Send them by PM by all means, and I know you meant no harm, duckweed (far from it!), but I'd rather keep a little privacy, especially as it's a sideline.

Thanks, and no offence intended.

Hi Granda-grunt. I gather Peter fixed you up. He dropped off the little scooter he was repairing for me and I asked if someone from the forum had been in touch and he said he had just come from someone nearby so I supposed it was you. My little scooter works better than when I bought it and it was new then.
He's coming back next week to replace the front of my big one (I had an accident with the front fence. For 20 years I've tried to have more than one scooter that worked so I always had back up but I've never managed it till now. Clark and Partners are a good company but they charge a lot and are always so busy it can take a couple of weeks at least to repair it.

hiya, can anyone help me urgently. My electric scooter wont charge anymore and as i am totally dependant on it for getting around the house im desperate to get it fixed, but can't afford the extortionate call out charges. I live in Hackenthorpe, so does anyone know anybody who does home calls.
Thank you

Parkgate mobility do come out to your house as well and I think they only charge for the repairs and parts they fit. They have shops all over the place look on there website for you closest, I was happy with them when they fixed mine.

there's a company between Woodhouse and Handsworth called Clark and Partners, they sell loads of scooters, stairlifts etc. It's a massive place near the Lorry testing site, think they've been there years.

Hi duckweed, I was just trying to find a solution to a similar problem with my scooter when I came across this thread. Would it be possible to let me have his number too please?

If it's easier to text than to pm, my number is 07818040005

Many thanks :love:

Hi, I don't know whether these repair at your home, but after being ripped off for £45 for someone to come to my home and assess the problem, then being quoted at least £80 for a new throttle pot, I found at advert for "Clowne Mobility". I took my scooter to their shop (which is actually an old church hall) as I don't live too far away. He looked at my scooter and diagnosed a faulty throttle pot. He had several old scooters that were beyond repair and was using them for spares. I left my scooter with him and he rang me the following day to say that he'd replaced my faulty throttle pot with one from one of the old scooters. He charged me £50 all in. It would be worth giving them a ring and asking if they do house calls. I can definitely recommend them. Their shop number is 01246 575716, Tony's mobile is 07855810511 and Ian's mobile is 077729884496 (I believe it's just a small business partnership). Their address is

Old Church Hall,
Rectory Road,
Clowne
Chesterfield
S43 4BH

Good luck!
