Vespa GTS 300 i.e. 2016

You will probably still be able to distinguish a Vespa from all other scooters in a few decades' time - and that is precisely what makes it so appealing. An original that sets standards in terms of looks and manoeuvrability. The supposedly weak engine has an amazingly easy time with the low weight, only at higher speeds does the GTS300 i.e. run out of steam and the handling becomes a little tippy. In the city, however, the 300 is certainly the king of the traffic lights. The quality feel and workmanship are first-class, but the helmet compartment under the seat can only hold a full-face helmet at best - others can really do better.
