Advice from the showroom floor
Will the Komfy 8 suit you?
The Komfy 8 is a road scooter where comfort comes first. Its captain seat reclines, swivels and is covered in breathable fabric, and the adjustable suspension works with air-filled tyres to smooth out poor surfaces. Its large-button controls and clear display are handy if small switches are a nuisance. A full charge lasts up to 20 miles. It is kept whole, in a garage or shed.
It is road legal at 8 mph, and we handle the DVLA paperwork when you buy. Call ahead so the model is ready to try.

The Komfy 8 in detail
Named for comfort, and it shows. Kymco's Komfy 8 is a road-legal 8 mph scooter with a reclining seat, suspension you can adjust and controls designed to be easy on the hands. It covers up to 20 miles per charge.
What you get
- Reclining captain seat that also swivels, trimmed in a fabric that breathes
- Adjustable suspension paired with pneumatic tyres
- Big buttons on the control panel, plus a clear display
- USB socket for a phone or sat nav
- Rear splash guards for wet roads
- Front light for evening journeys
Controls that are kind to your hands
Big buttons mean you do not need a precise touch to change speed or use the indicators, and the display can be read at a glance. It is a good choice if you find small switches awkward.
Tuned to you
Because the suspension is adjustable, the ride can be set firmer or softer to suit the rider. Visit one of our showrooms to feel the difference and have the seat recline set for you. Our own engineers look after the 12-month warranty.

Questions people ask us in the shop
Do I need a licence, tax or insurance?
No driving licence and no vehicle tax. Because it goes faster than 4 mph it must be registered with the DVLA, which is free, and we complete that for you when you buy. Insurance is not a legal requirement, but we strongly recommend it.
Can I try it before I buy?
Yes. Just walk in to any of our 9 North West showrooms, or call first and we will have this model ready for you. If you cannot get to us and you live in the North West, we will bring it to your home for a free demonstration.
What happens if it breaks down?
It comes with a 12-month warranty, looked after by our own engineers. For a warranty repair we collect it and bring it back free of charge across mainland UK. After that, we service and repair at any showroom or at your home.
Can I part exchange my old one?
Yes. Bring your old scooter or powerchair to any showroom and we will value it there and then, with up to £400 off your new one. We can also give a price by phone, confirmed when we see it.
Do I have to pay VAT?
Not if the person it is for has a long-term illness or disability and it is for their own personal use. The price shown already has VAT relief applied. You confirm that you qualify once, with a short declaration in your cart. There is nothing to send to HMRC.
Can I get it on the Motability Scheme?
Yes, this model is available through the Scheme. If you receive a qualifying mobility allowance you can use it to lease this instead of buying, with insurance, servicing and breakdown cover included. Sign up in any showroom or call us.
How will it be delivered?
Most people choose engineer delivery for £79: it arrives inspected and assembled, with a full demonstration, and we take the packaging away. Free courier delivery to the kerbside is also available.
