Vespa Piaggio P100TS - Photo #1



I spotted this cute Vespa Piaggio P100TS at the parking lot of the Indonesia University of Education (UPI)campus, Bandung, sometime ago. Except for the colors, which I think have been modified, everything else looks original.

P100TS is one of the smaller models of Vespa Piaggio scooters.

This is the first of a series of photos that I'm going to post later of this cute small Vespa. In the next few posts, I'm going to show you the photos of the detailed original parts that make a Vespa scooter so unique, classic, and timelessly beautiful.

Vespa Piaggio: The Late 1970s Model

This series of photographs are of Vespa Piaggio of the late 1970's model. This scooter, as you can see in the pictures, is not in a perfect condition, but everything looks original. That is what I like about it.

Piaggio Vespa is the most legendary scooter ever built. Its design is arguably one of the most original and beautiful. To read about the story and origin of this beautiful scooter, please click Piaggio's official publication here.
