Why.

I think 4. very cute and ticks fast smallie boxes. The ?? is quality of the build. Also road legality? Asked seller about status of periodic inspection.

My favorite is 5. as it is 8" with modern engine, all road legal, periodic inspection up to date and reasonably priced. Just not a tubular handlebar nor faro bajo; obviously.

3. keeps drawing my attention but pfff... faro bajo prices Those prices are why 4. is selling btw.
Could buy two of the other for 3. Facepalm emoticon and is it twice as ??

I'd have this one but for the price

But to be frank, all of them are too tidy for me. I like to purchase them old and unloved so I can enjoy the journey resurrecting them

I would take the Primavera 75 if it did not have all those go faster bits on it. Shame it isn't a stock Prim 125 !!

Thanks for the feed back.
Them´s about too. ´Problem´ with stock is points ignition as the MotoVespas are all T3 and not ET3. When an owner goes electronic he very rarely ónly goes e-ignition.
This yellow one is also a 50 Special ´replica´ so not looking stock either
Fást though

Thanks.
Me, I want one I can ride. Tinkering and sóme mods ok, but as impressed as I am with the AWESOMELY Clap emoticon projects and ditto attention to detail here, I am well past that.
Do like the survivor/rat look but preferrably modern tech., at léast e-ignition.
