❤️
Awwwww. Your dad would be happy.
👏👏👏👏👏
Mohd Junaid yeah mate he can’t see anything he’s dead
Vespa's are one of the most common scooters here in the Netherlands among young people, it's a way to show off that you have a lot of money.
It's the same in India too. If you own a Vespa, that means you or your parents are loaded.
strange to hear, in Italy they're so common and pretty affordable
in Indonesia it's a way to show how broke you are, lol.
They are cheap...
in the philippines i've never seen one
Owning a Vespa is for sure in my bucket list.
Vespa has always been a status icon in India ever since it arrived, alot of the rich people own Vespas and that's what makes it so special and elite, I've been planning on getting one and hopefully that'll happen soon :)
get it!!
indeed... going to buy the VXL Vespa and it's helmet... Mamma mia, it's so elegant with that round steel border headlight ")
I’m wishing to get one too🥹🦥 a matching color with my iPhone 🥹
India is doing an excellent job making motorcycles.
Did u buy it? How is ur experience so far?
I have a beautiful vintage vespa of 1967 and I ride it everyday, vespa is simply the best. Sono fiero di essere italiano, investite sempre nell’italia
Ehiii, sai parlare l'italiano anche te! È Bello vedere dei Italiani quà veramente, anche come stai?
Comunque sia per i materiali sia per la bellezza le vespe d' epoca sono inbattibili
I bought a Vespa P125 in 1962 and still have it in my garage with only 6245 mi. on the odometer. It was sent to me direct from Italy in a crate and had to be assembled.
Many wonderful experiences in my youth. Southern Ontario highways and biways were my playgrounds. Best of times were had and will never be forgotten as long as I am alive. Happy days.
you still get the spares available , over your place it is no possibe here i own lx 125 and the service centre says the parts are not available as the colour modle is discontinued .... cant belive u still have ur s
My uncle was stationed in Italy after the war, the first thing he did was buy a Vespa. Brought it home and sold it for more than he paid for it.
Stonks↗️
Did he bring back a woman too?
yeah after paying $3000 back then to ship
Why would you sell it?
@@wileecoyote5749 Soldiers could ship personal items for free using military vessels. So I'm sure he paid zero in shipping fees.
Great & Enjoying shorts on the Making of the iconic Paggio Vespa scooter of Italy! 🇮🇹 Thank You So Much! Stay Safe & Stay Grateful! 🌷🌿🌍
The front of Vespas always reminded me of the shields of Roman soldiers. Yet another symbol of Italy that this scooter embodies.
I am highly impressed by the CEO for his love towards Italy.
I have had one for just over a year now and I can definitely see the appeal, nothing ever goes wrong with them ( comparative to my previous scooter a Royal Alloy) they are very well made.
Great documentary on an iconic vehicle
I'm so so grateful to own a Vespa! Over here in Canada, Vespas are super wanted amongst teenagers since they're amazing quality! I was lucky enough to buy the last Black Primavera 50 CC
I'm also looking to buy a Vespa in Canada too, may I ask which dealer you got yours from?
can help me to get VESPA SS90 / SUPER SPRINT90
also keep in mind that they hold their resale value. I recommend keeping an eye out for a used. I just (end of 2023) got a GTS 300 super sport, 2017 with 9k km for $4300 CAN.
I own a vespa et4 125cc 2004 since 2014 and i love this thing so much. I’m rebuilding its engine and frame will be repainted too. The et4 is the very first scooter/motorized vehicle i drove when i was 14y old.and i never forgot how get if felt and how awesome a vespa looks.
I have drove alot of other scooters. And maybe im lucky. But vespa is the only scooter that has NEVER let me down. Thats why in rebuilding it into a new state. It deserves the love . Thanks vespa
Me and my 2001 Vespa et4 150 just celebrated 😎 our 20th anniversary together cruising the country roads and the beautiful fall foliage of New England here in the U.S. ❤ my Vespa !!! Ciao ....
Wow! I want to jump on one, ride to a Pizza place, drink Lambrosco , eat a Napoli pizza, then Tiramisu, met a nice Italian woman and let her ride me back to my place. Perfectionism.
Bruh 😂😂😂
Just go to Italy and live there for a year its bound to happen eventually lol
Lambrusco ignorante
You forgot Zexi time-ah!
francis long lambrUsco not lambrOsco 🤣🤣
Bought one yesterday! Kudos to Italy!
My dad had a 1956 Vespa, same as these. He taught me to ride it at 8 y/o. They were beautifully designed with a leg windshield already part of it to stop the wind from freezing the legs. They were shaped like Wasps. Ours was light blue coloured. There was also another make called Lambretta, a but longer and skinnier than the Vespa. I think the Lambretta had more horsepower than the Vespa.
Lambrettas were the direct competitor to Vespas made by Innocenti. Lambrettas were slightly more robust and sportier due to more powerful engine options and angular design, while also having longer models. Though, unfortunately, true Lambrettas are all old since the factory closed down in the early 70s. Grandpa had a '69 150 Special in metallic blue which was sold illegally by a relative after he stored it in his garage temporarily. Somehow the same bike changed multiple owners without its papers present and eventually, a bike collector informed us that grandpa's scooter was with him after another illegal transaction. We actually went to see the old timer, I even got to sit on the still relatively in one piece bike! (missing some tidbits and sporting a worn-out paint job) It honestly felt less like sitting on a two-wheeler and more like a chair with how larger it is than today's small 50 cc plastic scoots.
Right now though, we can neither sell it to the owner nor take it for ourselves since grandpa is in no state to sign the ownership off as he is... well, old age. I want to get a GTS 300 for myself.
Nice video. Great to see some great content produced around the iconic Vespa brand
I'm impressed they are still making them with steel! I thought they had completely switched over to plastic. I don't live in a city so I don't have any use for one, but they are very cool scooters.
Plastic actually better for dings and dropping of scooter
I can assure you the best use for Vespas is on winding country roads (something actually underrated by they own marketing, which points to urban use). They have exceptional handling, being super light vs a regular motorbike but with the same cornering stability. Just remember to choose the 300cc 😀😀
@@dsimonc I never knew that! I have the best motorcycle I could have for winding country roads, a 1988 BMW R100GS "bumblebeemer" that I bought new and still have.
They're actually quite fun to ride, you can always get the GTS 300 that reaches up to 95mph
Still driving my father's 64' vespa no problem at all still works fine
Nice ive been looking for that model for a while but they are always a bit out of my range enjoy that thing dude :D
Damn 😨😱
@@angelicabomination1699 Thanks mate!
@Vespa Lu Yep
Drive a car !
Ride a bike/ scooter !
🤓
Vespa Is the best thing one can get. It is like a dream comes true.
The most fabulous part of the video is watching how Vespa is being painted which gives it a fabulous shape it is really a masterpiece of extreme engineering
💯
its made to look nice but its a paiin in ass to just change front mud guard
I had a Vespa moped in the early 80s. I jumped ramps and rode it through the woods. Can't believe it lived as long as it did.
Vespa scooter(Piaggio)is without fork in the front wheel hub axil , poor stability of inthe front wheel running centre of gravity control thereby wobbling during speedy driver's which in on turn
Vespa Piaggio needs improving stability in the front wheel huvb-a
Beautiful!!! Belisimo!! Bravi!!!
IMPACTS italian style of vespa begin small make it large with continuous efforts inspiring engineering Thanks
Greetings from Vietnam 🇻🇳 We really like Vespa 🛵
And here I am watching this video sitting on my *not vespa but Honda* 😜 Great video though 👍🏻
Elite Punch I have one Honda and one Yamaha the price was better and I know the quality is also.
I'm riding my 1989 Honda Elite 80 but also love the Vespa.
Vespa's built quality, styling, and performance over a period of time are stand out.
I'm proud
Let me tell you that I joined Vespa Company in Pakistan and was associated with the company from 1988 to 1999. I ran Vespa well during my job, I am still crazy about Vespa. Mr. Zafar Atif Lahore (Pakistan).

I love my Vespa GTS 300 named Sophia! I had a 250 GTV which I named Ms Bellucci because it had her hips. Fun and practical transport.
from Malaysia. love vespa. its lifestyle.
Very interesting video
Thanks form 🇺🇸 🙏
My dad had a vespa select II. I am from India and I never knew that vespa has a factory in Vietnam until I watched this. Nice video.
Blessed i still have my classic vespa pts100 in really good condition and og.
I have 1997 Gilera Runner SP50, and it still leaves in dust new Vespas like this, even with 125ccm engine. Old quality, durability and two stroke power is unmatched today!

cool scooters - great video - more please
Very interesting video✌🏻
Reminds me of GTA vice city.
Faggio?
Remember, it's pronounced, "fah-jee-oh" !
Italian is so easy to understand and learn
In so many countries in Eastern Europe they would show good italian movies without subtitles and millions learned the language just by watching tv it’s crazy
I don't think so mate, Latin grammar is the base of our language and it is not an easy one. I'm learning Russian btw haha
I love Vespa. Had two of em in my yonder years.♥️
Very Cool. I always like watching production line assembly of products.
My Dad has a 1963 Vespa Sportique in Metallic Blue, absolute beauty
just got myself a Vespa GTS 150
2 weeks ago loving it... 🇹🇭
I rode my first Vespa-AKA Sears Allstate in 1968. It was the first motorcycle I’d ever ridden & I it was great fun! I wish I had one for my retirement.
my mom owns a 150cc sprint and honestly it's one of the most beautiful vespas.
My dad had Two Scooters both were Vespa. I have lots of childhood memories connected with it. Love from India 🇮🇳
Really expensive for what it offers. But I guess that is price of the appeal, to stand out from the crowd.
Also the out of date engine which consumed a lot of gasoline and very easy to broken down...
@@nguyenvuhoanglong3418 Very polluting. They should be forbidden, like in China I think?
Welcome haters.
@@theflyingbrompton4787 their have alot of scooter in my country, but vespa brand is the worst...maintain cost is crazy high and the noise from the engine can compared with tractor
Nguyễn Vũ Hoàng Long so if you don’t like Vespa because they break and maintenance is high, out of date engine, the worst...why are you watching a Vespa video?
I love claudia and vespa both.❤️❤️❤️
Linda história de uma lenda italiana
a work of art: italian made
❤ Vespa, from India, owned one rightnow.
What are you reviews after a year?
I love these thing I had my Italian friend Sean me 4 two from the mid 70s and two from the early 2000s great gas savers
Awesome! Thank you.
best scooter of all time
I have been riding Vespa since 1976 when I was 18 until today ❤️
Holy crap that means you're 83 now
I have ridden motorcycles for 55 years. I'm a 67 year old American man living in Iowa.
Last year I road 10,000 miles in 20 states. I love anything with two wheels. Great show.

Magnifico!
Prices aren’t so competitive anymore
You are Dutch. They should giving it to you guys for free. You are tight as a ducks ass😂😂😂
@@2006canna stfu 12 year old
And the quality is shit too
@@2006canna I'm Dutch as well, and for me nothing else then Vespa!!
Coming from a developing country, vespa is not economical at all. Vespa prices it as if they are selling a ducati
Truly the “Rolls Royce” of scooters.
Apart from the paint, that is
My Dad had a LML Vespa. It served us well.
Great, fun ride!
In Indonesia, it's common for vespa riders to honk to greet eachother, no matter the classic or cvt vespa. One of the most famous phrase here is "One vespa, thousands of brothers", it might be famous elsewhere idk
i heard she mentioned Primavera 125. is that model only for european market? because in here (indonesia) they only have the 150
John Trapoltak Indeed, because in europe you need a appropriate license for bikes that are more than 125cc
@@amirsgarage5204 thank you the info
Perfection 😍
My daughter has a yellow one. I drive it a lot. It's so good for long trips.
Piaggio is a good thing I have one and Im happy 😊
Here in Seattle Washington the GTS Supersport 300 HPE costs $7200.
Pretty soon a month worth of groceries.
I"m here to buy a vaspa scooter for LUCA & Alberto . They love vaspa very much!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We love ❤️ vespa from Nepal 🇳🇵
Historical master piece.
I’m usually Japan all the way but Vespas really a beautiful machines.
2 wheel Italian elegance, thank you.

Love the narrator's voice and accent ❤️
Truly love u classy Vespa
very interesting thanks
We have a Vespa Gts 300 on the channel :-) and I‘m happy with it! On big downside is the high price no doubt! But you don‘t buy a vespa only with your head (as we say in german).
But nothing beats a vintage Vespa.
Especially a 65’ or a 62’
I have visited this place and what a massive achievement of Piaggio
Good clip thanks
I have vespa sprint 😊
50r 1972 here
I have Vespa Excel 200
Weak i have a bicycle
i have brain
@@aldeawiradiwijaya2120 I doubt it.
Vespa is Italian for "wasp" It sound like wasps
Ron Kumar fact
It has the shape of a wasp
I dont think youve ever heard a tuned scooter
Lol no
Not the e-version. It sounds like a mosquito.
❤️ beautiful
Amazing
About to buy Vespa one day, but i thought about it again, and i decided to go with Honda PCX, it's worth for value for money, and more features, easier to maintain.
If you adjust the original price for inflation, it’s still sells for roughly the same price. Amazing.
Bravo 👍👍🤙
Very good 👍
5:19 But where do the piaggio zip’s come from then?!
assembled in china iirc
Piaggio even has auto rickshaws (tuk tuk) in India But India's most famous scooter is 'Honda Activa'
@Akshat Jain Yes
@@JoelDmello722Nope, First of all Japan is 1000× developed than Italy 🤣🤣🤣 Activa is really relatable and really strong in indian market I think vespa is really old looking !!!
@@surjithrock9139 i own three activa n 1 Grazia. m talking through my personal experience.
@@JoelDmello722 ok 😁
@@JoelDmello722 problem is Honda chain of service is superior here in India they handle everything their own . vespa that is produced outside italy is downgraded of poor standard because piagio giveaway manufacturing and aftersales services to thirdparty .who then destroys the brand . this is why vespa lost India .recently they started a factory in India
I’m getting a scooter from vespa I’m getting a primavera 150 and I’m so excited I’ve watched so many videos and I’ve practiced on a motorcycle for a few years so I feel I am ready 😁
Italian beauty 😎
Amazing to see a product that originally went for a few hundred dollars, that now can sell for up to $8,000 dollars. They must be doing many things right.
its all relative snapperhead
