Thank you all who shared information and views on the subject. Pasha PS. There was one request however for an old car for $150/week from this page. Same concept: basic cheap vehicle. Pasha, I do not want to sound like a I-told-you-so kind of guy - but, yes, I told you so. What is prestigious in, let's say, Moscow? A BMW, a Mercedes, high heels for women, expensive clothes for all, spending lots of money at a club, hanging out with the like-minded crowd (for teens and young adults), etc. I just didn't see how a scooter fits anything in Moscow. Maybe a couple of tourists who do not care about their image could rent a scooter, but I tell you (and you know this too) an everage russian male (and you are targeting men mostly) will not rent a scooter. If you target the visitors from abroad, how many of them do you think, think before going to Moscow: "It would be great to rent a scooter, once I am in Moscow!" ? I doubt anyone does. But since I do online advertising, I am also aware that one can push and be successful virtually at anything, provided he knows how to market things. A) You need a better, professionally looking site B) You need to get out on Google via AdWords and spend some money to get your services out C) You need to stop listening to anything that comes from the canadian border... (oh, wait, that's just a joke).
