it all started about a year ago i bought my ex an et2
she didnt use it much it was dented n dinged and the red paintwork had gone all grey/pink
so filled and smoothed all the body work and sprayed it matt black! when the cdi in my peugeot died for the third time i started using the vespa.
about a month after doing it up some stupid woman hit me up the arse doing about 40 when i was stopped at a junction! (shes just been given 5 points n a £525 fine! )
the insurance company wrote it off as a cat c! so searching gumtree and ebay i found a rather tatty et4 for sale it was battered the front of the bike had been reversed into my a van it only had half the front mudguard and the front pannel was caved in the side panels had the usual dents and scrapes you find on vespas in london i didnt get any real pics of the bike before (i know im rubbish!) it was a silver mess Laughing emoticon
