Used 2005 Piaggio or new Wolf scooter?

Hi guys, I'm getting a new scooter, and am between a new 2018 150cc Wolf scooter or a 2005 200cc Piaggio scooter. Both would cost around the same amount of money. The Piaggio scooter has had 2 owners, and has a little over 5,000 miles on it. The current owner says he hasn't driven it much the past 2-3 years, maybe a couple times each year. He winterizes it each year, but hasn't changed the oil in the past 2-3 years since he hasn't been driving it much. He says he changed the battery within the past year. No other service has been performed since he's had it (no spark plug changes or inspection by a mechanic). It has a crack in one of the side mirrors and some scratches on the front, but otherwise appears to be in good shape externally. The front and back tires both have good tread left. Haven't had a chance to give a test drive yet. I know the Piaggio brand is better than Wolf, but I wasn't sure how the age of the Piaggio played a role. I was wondering if you guys thought I'd be better off with a new Wolf scooter or the used Piaggio.



TL;DR: I'm going to buy either a new 2018 Wolf scooter or a used 2005 Piaggio scooter with 5,000 miles on it for the same price. Which do you think would be better? Thanks everyone!!!!
