    Great review, and spectacular photos. All the 'models' are really shining and smiling through every photographs. A much different and better perspective than usual crop of reviews full of stocky riders and muddy bikes!

    Your photos bring out the beauty in the scooter even better than reality. Yesterday I saw the same model parked on a road, and thoroughly hated it. Now these photos are starting to question my opinion! Great job with the pics, and do continue this trend of placing models in the reviews.

      Thanks for the compliments [MENTION=11096]animeher[/MENTION].

      If you are noticing xBhp photos closely, you'll find that we do try to put a human element in the picture wherever possible. Even for this shoot, I somehow managed to get the girl (who takes care of the PR for Vespa) to pose for me with the scooter and that really gave the entire photoshoot a different meaning. The other girl, in purple dress, is actually a 'model' - Rochelle Rao, who posed for a while with the scooter.

        Lovely review sunil G, Vespa sure is creating its niche market.
        after looking at the lovely clicks from your side, I too digged into my old albums and found few pics of this lovely scooter

                Good to see that Piaggio still makes beautiful Vespas.

                      Great review as usual and do I need to say anything about amazing work behind the lens? coming to the review part, I recently rode a friend\\\'s Vespa S and found the front to be a little too light(or rear heavy) and bit tall which made the handling during acceleration a bit too nervous when compared with other commuter scooters.

                        Beautiful scooter.

                        If I were to own one, I\'d own something that is different on the road.
                        Scooties and tons of such scooters are getting so crowded
                        Ride Happy and Return Safe!
