Thank you Borvik!

I like scooters from pretty much all eras, they are all slightly different, and each has good points. I also have one of the new automatic Vespas, an ET4, which I have covered in chrome racks and crashbars, very sexy, and the automatic gearbox makes it very easy to ride in traffic. Not everyone is a fan of them, they are styled differently to earlier Vespas, but I like their curviness, modern and retro at the same time.

Overall though, I think I prefer the sleekness and length of the Lambrettas over the more bulbous styling of the Vespa, even tho it means there's no room for a spare wheel under the sidepanel. But then that's what racks are for, innit? Mind you, Lambys are notoriously unreliable which probably explains why Piaggio are still producing whereas Innocenti died many years back *sigh*. Mine's the last model they produced in Italy I believe.
