Was meant to be getting new scoot today but still has not been delivered to dealer ! Apparently due to complete shutdown of factory in Italy during August/ early Sept. Dealer hopes this coming week. Can't wait!

I lived in Italy for my final year of Art College off campus in 1979/80,
Yeah, Italy pretty much shuts down that time of year, Everyone goes to the beach.

Kinda like Canada in November/December, Everyone goes on a cruise.

Don't insist on it too soon, give them time to PDI it properly.

Hope it's there with you in a day or two, fully coppa-slipped.

Yeah, that's how the Italians are. Surprised, every year, that there is a month of August, and that they close business then.

(Same goes for the dealer, apparently)

I don't get it - is there only one vespa dealership in all of E. Sussex? When I got my 300, I was so obsessed that I would have gone to the next state to get my hands on one and ride out the door with it!!!

Welcome to MV SIMMO1!

Be patient ... it will be worth the wait. The new 300's are something else, man you didn't mess around - went straight for the big boy! Is this your first two wheeler?

The GTS 300 Super is well worth the wait SIMMO1. It will arrive before you know it, then you'll experience the awesome torque of the 278 cc engine as you take off from a stop getting ahead of everyone.

Disappointed newbie waiting for his new scoot!
I've traded in a BMW 1150RT to get my GTS300 Super! Had lots of bikes over the years but only two scooters - ET4 125 and a Gilera Runner SP180.
Hoping to here from the dealer on Monday about when delivery is expected.
