Scooter Center on the dealer mile

On the dealer mile there were vintage scooters for several thousand euros, badges and technical innovations for them Wideframe.

We were with our beloved ones    bgm 8 inch tires & the new bgm touring box for the Wideframe Models represented.

At our stand we welcomed new customers and also loyal regular customers who came with us Scooter Center Antiques such as the 15 year anniversary T-shirt in top condition were surprising. Of course we rewarded this loyalty with one 30 years Anniversary T-shirt.

Faro Basso's exhibition had a special ingredient with the Concours d'Elegance, as we were able to learn first-hand the history behind these works of art.

ROD Model Douglas 1953

The first owner gave it to him on the condition that he would continue to use it and take it to events like this.

He got it with all the original parts, even the tire inflator.

One of the most exciting stories was how he was able to find the only previous owner of his Vespa via Facebook.

This enabled him to purchase the last missing original part for his vehicle.  The license plate!

He also received a photo from the previous owner (1970's) with the Vespa from times long past. He recreated this in a wonderful tribute as a thank you.

Vespa acrobatics

Robin Davy is still the mastermind behind the acrobatic Vespa team and the presentation was impressive and entertaining as always!

The Corso was a wonderful experience, in just 6 kilometers you could experience the history of the Vespa yourself, as the parade was led by the Faro Basso, followed by the models that followed it.
