Modern Vespa

hi
wondering if anyone can help. have a spanish import and am trying to trace registration details. where do i start? a scooter club have offered to try and trace it but have said that they cant without the prefix as this has partially rusted away. anyone with any advice?
thanks

I imported an Italian smallframe a few years ago and was able to get a certificate to prove its age, for DVLA purposes, through the Vintage Motor Scooter Club http://www.vmsc.co.uk/_pages/registrations.htm It does require you to provide the frame number though. However if you can't see all of it, it's sometimes easy to guesstimate what it is, since there weren't a huge range of prefixes. There's a website here to help you http://www.scooterhelp.com/serial/ves.frame.serial.numbers.html If you know the model and approx year of manufacture you can possibly work it out. Failing that, if you find the engine number you might be able to cross-refer it to a frame number; assuming its still the original engine.

thanks a lot will try that out

You may have to contact Piaggio to have the Spanish Vespa identified. They charge about 25 pictures of the Queen.

I collected a Moto Vespa P200E last year without papers. The serial numbers are different.

ie: They don´t have the VAIT bit.

Spanish P200E´s

early models 1977 - 1980 DS XXX XXX
PX non-indicator frame, rally forks and headsets.

Later model 1981 - 1983? DN XXX XXX
Same as any other P200

Your looking for 2 letters and 6 numbers on the frame to complete the serial number. The engine numbers the same length just behind the kick start.

The engine number and frame numbers don´t match.
