Pretty much all 2stroke 50cc mopeds will be reliable as each other in around town

Can't imagine insurance being that much for you, mine was 800 when I was 16, you should be fine but ring around for a few quotes anyway

As kamakazi said and 50cc scooter would do ya but a japanese model would be best like suzuki/honda/yamaha best of luck.

Sorry yeah, meant to say best to stay with one of the big brands as it will be a lot easier to get parts if something does go wrong
