The Italian automobile company Piaggio have introduced the Vespa scooter in 1946 after World War 2 as a solution to the public for affordable and modern mode of transportation. The first version of the Vespa was presented to the media in a Golf Club located in Rome which provided positive feedback for its exterior design and overall size. Some more positive feedback was provided after road tests were performed, labelling the Vespa scooter as a manoeuvrable and comfortable vehicle despite its lack of rear suspension. It became a sales success after it was officially debuted at the Milan Fair of 1946 with a 96cc engine which drove the rear wheel via a 3-speed manual transmission.

This particular example of the Vespa 150 Sprint has been through a restoration 12 years ago and has been taken care of ever since. It has also been through a recent recommission service by Moto 75.

This Vespa is on display in the Crossley & Webb showroom until 2pm on Saturday the 12th of September 2020
