New TGA Breeze to be Launched at Naidex

This years Naidex National (Birmingham NEC, 5th to 7th of April 2011) will see the launch of the new enhanced versions of the Breeze 3 and 4 mobility scooters.

While details are sketchy TGA have given us some clues as to the changes. The styling is said to be updated, bringing the larger Breeze’s in line with the Breeze Midi launched last year. The scooters chassis will be slightly smaller, giving a turning circle of 56 inches which is 15 inches less than the current breeze.

The suspension has been tweaked to give a smoother ride, this may resolve the ‘wallowing’ sensation the Breeze had on rough terrain when compared to mon shock scooters like the TGA Vita or the Colt Executive.

Strangely the new Breeze seems to be lower powered although they may just be being conservative with their measurements. The current Breeze has a stated maximum safe climbing angle of 11 percent; the new Breeze manages 9.5. Similarly the maximum carrying capacity drops from 31 stone to just under 24 stone! On the plus side the new Breeze will come with larger batteries giving a total range per charge of 33 miles.

The new Breeze sounds as if it is being targeted more squarely at the mainstream luxury scooter market, sacrificing some power and weight capacity for a longer range and more stable ride. We await Naidex with bated breath…

Sun Mobility

If you are reading this post on The Wonderful World of Mobility read no further, this post isn't for you. If are reading it on a page from Sun Mobility then read on. I have noticed that a number of my posts are being displayed unaccredited on the Sun Mobility web site. Now I have no problem with people re producing my content, after all that is pretty much what the web is all about, but when you do it at least do me the service of a back link at least. Seeing as they have forgotten I will do it my self:

Pride Colt XL8

This was a bit I wrote about the Pride Colt XL8 mobility scooter back on the 21st of November that Sun Mobility reproduced over eighty five web sites (I know, eighty five seems like overkill).

TGA Breeze

Now I have written about the TGA Breeze several times, but our dear friends at Sun Mobility don't seem to have bothered to scrape them yet. They have however scraped the post about Mobility Scooter Price Match from a few weeks back which made it into a staggering ninety one sites. I should be flattered, and it was one of my better posts, but for some reason I'm not.

TGA Vita

Now this was the one that gave you away! The TGA Vita hasn't been written about much, in fact my two blog posts account for about twenty percent of the original copy on this scooter, so you can imagine my surprise when the Google results for "TGA Vita" lept from twelve to a hundred and eighty! It didn't take long to realise their was something fish going on that's for sure. It seems to me that they only scrape the longer posts so I'm going to have to pad this one out a bit longer. I'm at a loss what to put now, but I can say one final thing: if I was likely to be renting a mobility aid in Florida I would be unlikely to do it from a company that scrapes pages without permission and passes them of as their own. Oh and by the way, please feel free to reproduce this on your many many spammy sites.

TGA Breeze: The Roll Royce of Scooters

Now I have often said the TGA Breeze is the Rolls Royce of scooters, and it seems I'm not alone. Retired engineer Bill Inston of Worle in Somerset has spent the last three months converting his second hand Breeze 4 into a facsimile of a Rolls Royce Silver cloud. Working with such diverse materials as tin foil, mahogany and knitting needles Mr Inston has created a scooter the envy of all on Weston Supermare. He said: "My Rolls-Royce is the only one of its kind in the world. "Like everyone else, I always wanted a Rolls and like many others, I could never afford one. So one day I had the idea to turn my scooter into one. When I'm cruising through Weston people often stop me and ask about it." With a mahogany dash, perspex roof, and a distinctive dancing cherub in place of the flying lady it is no wonder he is caussing a bit of a stir. Daily Express On thing about this story that doesn't ring true though - where on earth did he manage to pick up a Breeze 4 for only £200!

TGA Breeze and Pride Colt Price Match

Value Mobility have launched an online price matching service on some of their most popular scooters. For so many consumers the process of finding the best price has involved tedious rounds of searching the web and making phone call just to find the best priced mobility scooter. The Value Mobility price match service should go some way to removing that headache. Instead of having to call in, or fill out a long form all you have to do is type in your email address and the best price you have been quoted, and the price matching agents will do the rest, often responding within a matter of minutes. While the price matching service isn't available on all scooter it is currently available on the following:

• TGA Breeze 3 and 4
• Freerider Royale
• TGA Supersport
• Pride Colt XL8 and Colt Deluxe
• Electric Mobility 3,4,6 and 8
