Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Anyway. Back on subject. Forget about weight. Those bikes look wonderful

I'd be happy with either!
The plan would be to continue my fitness on the MTB and when funds allow, get one of those and go for a wee tour up North (Scotland).
I'm hoping it may be a reality next summer....so who's in?

That looks handy for my wife's next bike should she enjoy riding but not like the Apollo we've acquired

You could do worse than google for Edinburgh Bikes, Revolution Heritage.
A nice good riding step through bike.
edit: here you go.

decathlon do a far less robocop looking Elops than the one upthread too. The Elops 5. Lovely but 3 speed probably limits it for a potential tour option.

Beautiful looking bike... all it needs is a basket on the front and it'll be damn near perfect*.
painted sage & cream and it will be perfect

That's similar to my Dawes Mojave. I wanted a sit up and beg, step through frame but with very wide range of gears as I live at the top of a very steep hill.
Out of all the step through's I considered the Dawes won because of its gears. Love that bike, with the addition of a big front wire basket, its my perfect bike.
Seen here with dog attached!

I annoyed the youths at halfords by sitting on the first one you linked to with the leather seat and handles today. If I'm honest it was a bit of an exercise on why a £280 bike is just better than the £150 Real Verve which is the one down in the range. The whole gear and break assembly was just a clear upgrade, bits on mine that are plastic were either metal or chunkier plastic. Given the really odd weight to money ratio with the more expensive Dutch style (as the americans call them) bikes weighing around 26kg if I had had a £500 budget then that would be the one I would have bought.
