Expensive? Oh I don't know...it's a bargain compared with this one....

That's got even less chance of finding its way into my garage. For 15 grand, I could buy 15 of these

On second thoughts, maybe the 946 Vespa isn't so bad.

One day I will take a Vespa for a ride and see what it is like.

"An LCD display hints at the 946's high-tech underpinings, which include an ABS braking system and for the first time on any Vespa: traction control"

Who the fuck was designing the vespa and thinking "this 125 3 valve motor is far too powerful, even with a centrifugal clutch it might spin up the rear, in the rain, on gravel, covered in diesel. Better slap us some TC on this beast".

Traction control might cut back on the wheelies.

I saw a 946 in the flesh yesterday. It's a work of art.
