If anyone knows what this thing is, I'd be grateful. I'm under the impression that it is some kind of Vespa sidecar scooter but not sure of the accuracy of this opinion.

Something been thinking about for a while - if you've got a smart suit, is it right (or is it tacky) to ride around on a bonkers bright scooter ? Or should your scoot be tailored to match your look?
As in, if you're going casual, bright's alright... and if you're going smart perhaps something like the below might be better? I always lean towards the smart and snappy personally. There's a nice red sheen on this one - someone's obviously been keeping it clean. I also quite like the round leather bag on the back. I can't think of any situation in which I would ever need a round bag, but it seems to fit with the style of this particular vespa.
Yes I know the photo is copyrighted, but I liked it too much. Love these old ads.
Almost a different world - when cars were cars, planes were planes and everyone rode their scooters without a helmet. Plus, I'm pretty sure that is a de Havilland Comet in the background... Now I wasn't there... but it looked fab.
Pic was swiped from @NewModGirl - some great pics of the event. Vintage vespa showroom today. Enjoy, sirs!
They call themselves restrospectivescooters.com, so go check 'em out. Yes folks if you’re as obsessed with scooters as some people I know in this place (the internet) then perhaps you need to take it that bit further and sleep with them.
Or maybe your kids’d like a fancy cover to bring them in the right direction. Either way you can grab one on ebay for cheap today if you’re quick. Another Sunday, another glorious little blue Vespa. How many of them can still be out there? (answer: obviously a fair few).
Anyway this is a 1963 Vespa Piaggio 150 VBB which you can check out on ebay in the next 4 days right here. Nice little understated number for today's sunday scoot - it's a 1960 Lambretta Series 2 Li 150 with an original registration.
£3,150 on eBay - see what you think. |
