Modern Vespa

It looks like it could be a Vespa, but it doesn't resemble any of the 2010 models out.
I thought it may be a Buddy, but it doesn't look like any of them either.

Any guesses?

It's an ET.

You both beat me to it. I had been meaning to post this pic, because I got the catalog in the mail. I just kept forgetting. Scooter Bug is right; it's an ET.

They are really cute looking scooters. Too bad they don't make that model anymore.

The ET is the forerunner of the LX. You can usually tell the difference between the two by the mirrors. It's an immediate give away.

Oval headlight's the clincher for me when spotting the difference - wouldn't be so easy to change that out!
(Unfortunately I'm unable to comment on the pic since it ain't showing up for me at work.)

LOL, it's not like it's an NSFVW pic. The model is fully, and very modestly, clothed.

Funny, my first scoot was an ET4 and the first thing that grabs my attention are the front turn signals. Instantly recognizable as an ET to me....then the headlamp then the mirrors. I am left-handed so maybe I observe bottom-up instead of top-down.

Funny also that the little ET is starting to look retro having been gone awhile.

I have the same mirrors on my LT. I like them better than my LX ones.

Hahaha. My mom forwarded this link to me. Moms are so cute.

how is this not scooter related??

Well it was just a catalog advert for ladies' fashion.
And I didn't want to offend the MV Forum gods that be if it wasn't a strictly related scooter topic. Just cautiousness on my part.

Good point!

I'm now at home and can see the pic - I would say I was disappointed in how smutty it isn't, but I'm afraid all sorts of innocent material gets blocked at work (and some hilariously dirty stuff gets through on very rare occasions) so it hadn't even occurred to me!

So now I can concur - it's an ET4. Like mine. Except I think it might be a North American model. And much shinier than mine.

Really? My eyes always catch the amber (front) turn signal lenses first, although the oval headlight is another good dead giveaway...

how can you tell it's an ET4 and not an ET2? just curious.

The huge clouds of blue smoke are the giveaway for the ET2. Maybe I'm just seeing poorly maintained ET2s around here, but there are four or five I keep crossing paths with in my neighborhood.

ET2 is a 2 stroke which has more smoke than a ET4. I'd love to have an ET2 but alas i don't think we have any here

Don't see many with the amber indicator lenses here (generally they're clear), although that curvy teardrop shape is another giveaway.

She's too pretty to mix fuel.
(I actually didn't notice I'd added the 4, but I think there's the edge of a dipstick/filler cap in that photo isn't there?)

Me too, I always notice the amber turn signals first too.

The headlight.

My rare and exotic ET4 at da gym. Best looking bike made (at least MV) by Piaggio.

I think it's an et2. I believe you can see enough of the transmission cover that you'd see the clutch cap if it was an et4. Hard to be sure though.
