I live in the UK and am really struggling to find a local/online retailer who sells anything but the standard Vespa accesories. Could anyone point me in the right direction?

Something with similar lines to www.scooterwest.com would be awesome

Thanks a lot

Model Numbers are a little dodgy.

There's no LX 50, but there's a Vespa 50, a Vespa PK 50 XL and a Vespa PK 50 S, which are the closest. Or is this retro scooters only?

ebay is terrible for nice chrome bits. ive rarely come up with anything and if i do its for the vintage vespas. ve-uk is a problem, they want part numbers, i want to browse really. beedspeed looks ok, not as much variety as some of the american/euro sites ive been browsing.. might be worth ordering gear in from over seas as it seems the uk has a rather large niche, (more of a vast casm) for this sort of thing..

I've bought quite a few bits from ebay in the UK, especially from a fellow in Wales. But then again, I'm after PX parts which seem to be plentiful on ebay.

I've also been struggling to find bits from UK retailers, I'm after the genuine Piaggio rear rack/backrest for my ET4 and I can't find one anywhere.

Beedspeed and VE-UK do look like the best of the UK dealers, PM tuning is quite good too although obviously just for tuning parts.

I normally end up getting most of my parts from SIP in Germany because I'm always impressed with their service.

Hey there! I'd love to shop with this site. I'm out of their shipping area, but the UK isn't! Take a look. Find your model scooter and it shows a diagram of all the parts. Great for browsing. I've got a wishlist already now I just have to see if my Dutch friend will ship to the U.S. for me.
