All I know is that it's supposedly registered in 1981, and the colour is most definitely original on most of the Vespa (ignore the front fender, it's been repainted, badly). I haven't seen a 3-number paint code anywhere, but I can have a look if anybody knows where to start!

Not that I'm aware of, but funnily the original owner drove it from Finland to Spain and back, one of the stickers on the front are from a camping site in Spain. Quite a trip on a 125cc bike. It also only has 12000 km on the meter. Is there anyway to check if it's a Spanish Post Vespa?
