Puch maxi

[25v6turbo]

Now i know NOTHING about theseBut i,ve been offered a super clean basically NOS Puch maxi,1976 with its original 1977 tax disc,has only about 43 miles on it from newWhats it worth??And is it collectable,i know nothing about them,but i think its the higher spec one with mag wheels,any ideas?

[Autoplas]

Mag wheels ?Is it a BMX ?

[Volksy]

I assume it's a scooter/moped, not a 4x4 austin?

Pedal'n'go disasters weren't they?I know of a Tomos if you're really perverse.

Sounds like it might be an executive? Superb, reliable bikes, I used one to replace my 800cc BMW and shaved 10 minutes off my commute. Anyway they're quite collectable, I reckon you're looking at several hundred quid!Pete, I fancy a Tomos!

[Pete-M]

Pete, I fancy a Tomos!

I'll have a word with the chap. It's been lying around his workshop for years. E reg I think.

Ad if that does not come to pass let me know would you.

Shame its not a Puch Grand Prix 50 moped - styled like a proper motorbike with pedals !! That would be worth about £1500 in that fettle. Maxi probablt 2 or 3 hundred ?

Woolworths sold these. I worked in a motorbike shop at the time (mid 80s) and there was a steady stream of disgruntled owners wanting us to fix em - they were rubbish & Woolies didn't want to know when they went pop. Suppose a teenage girl on the pick n mix counter couldn't be expected to carry out a top end rebuild.We wouldn't touch em with a shitty bargepole either

Yes and no respectively.

 

If it's this one as Torsten says, it's probably worth about £300-400 in that sort of condition in good running order.

 

 

It will very likely need a full engine rebuild if it's been stood since 1977 though - the crank seals will have hardened and the rings will almost certainly have seized into the bore.

Now you're talking. I had one of those in the black JPS like colour scheme. Parted with it for a new Suzuki AP50 way back in 1977.

 

 

Not mine I might add.
