9619 Scooter rental

I'm renting a villa near Perugia at the beginning of August and would like to rent a couple of scooters / mopeds for a week or so. The Perugia Tourist office says there is nowhere to do so - I find that hard to believe in the Land of the Vespa ! Does anyone have any ideas ?

Many thanks

Here are a couple of recent references for renting scooters close to Perugia, there is also a place in Terni. Shouldn't be too difficult.

Castiglione Del Lago is still quite far from Perugia (about 50Km?) ... If that's not a problem you could try [url=http://www.autonoleggioilgirasole.it/scooter.en.php]Il Girasole[/url] - it is near the suggestions above and their website shows pricing for a 125cc model.

However if you follow [url=http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=vDW5oVYfzC8C&pg=PA264&lpg=PA264&dq=%22scooter+hire%22+perugia&source=web&ots=khjLmyvo7L&sig=LcPJH4I-LQTqTRvEvf23aqLaeS8&hl=en]this link[/url] and scroll to the bottom of the first page you land on you'll see details for "Scootyrent" in via della volpe. That's slap bang in the centre (of Perugia) and the prices look more like they're pitched at the students than tourists.
