I fully agree on that!!! Vespa is the prototype from the inventors!!! Which came later are copies or totally diferent machines with some looks of a scooter or allmost exact copies, like LML!!! In Italy they Love LML too!!!
I don't understand your surprise to see these images; we're talking about a minimum of 30 years ago. Completely different era. The Vespa especially after "II World War" was a symbol of freedom and reinassance here in Italy. In that years the Vespa was cheap to buy and also the poor families could have vehicle to move around the city. The families had a little money and could only buy Vespa or Fiat 600/500 for all the members of the family. It's absolutely normal see those scenes in those years.
Ho già visto la nuova vespa gts 300 troppo bella robusta tecnologica che nulla ha che vedere con la vespa px senza offese mha un pensierino più in là lo faro
non è male ma la qualità dei pezzi piaggio è al dir poco schifosa........scadente è fare un complimento....peccato....yamaha da vent anni per questo.....
