Not a Vespa. It's just a Scooter.

It's just too bad they cribbed the article from Jim On Light.com's 3 part series.

I love Clarkson, and I am a die hard Top Gear fan, but that review is NOT of a Vespa... he is referring to foot shifting, which you don't do on a Vespa.
They used to sell the PX150, with a brake on the floor but the shifter is on the handlebars, squeeze the clutch and twist the handle bar.
The GTV he was riding, is a twist and go, squeeze both levers evenly to come to a safe stop.
Further in his article he does make a good point, it's a hobby. I thought I would be using mine for everything, but maintenance schedules on bikes are much more frequent and cost a lot of money. Tires wear out in around 3000 miles (YMMV) and cost around $300 to replace (tires and service fees)
I still haven't done all the math, but I'm sure it's close to if not cheaper for me to drive my 2002 Malibu than my Vespa GTS when you count total cost of ownership.
I love my Vespa though.

It's NOT a gun, it's a tattoo machine.
Tattoos don't hurt any worse than getting a shot of a local anesthetic.

I actually ordered one of these before christmas, got it a couple days ago and it's construction is of great quality, just wish I had a QRcode reader. Doesn't seem to be one for my cell phone.
Took it about 9 days to get to Seattle from Austria after they shipped it.

We used to get that from the Food Bank when I was younger, anytime we did someone would always get hit in the head with it. Every time, guaranteed.
This toss was always followed by the thrower yelling SMACK!
