Used scooters

Buying a used Vespa: what should you look out for?

If you don't buy your used Vespa from a dealer, which we wouldn't recommend, there are a few points you should look out for. For example, it is important to establish whether the Vespa has always been well maintained. Often there is no proof, such as invoices, and you have to take the seller at their word. In that case, any guarantee only lasts until the seller's front door.

For that reason, we advise always buying a used Vespa from an official dealer such as Vespucci. This may be less kind to your wallet, but you can be sure that you have bought a good scooter with a guarantee, which you will enjoy for years to come. At Vespucci we have many used Vespas in our range, all of which are guaranteed to have been well maintained and to be in excellent condition.

That is why we can say with complete confidence that our used Vespas are every bit as good in quality as a new one.

 

Buying a used Vespa: what are the benefits?

A Vespa scooter is of course not known as the most budget-friendly scooter, but rather for its unique style, high quality and reliability. With a used Vespa you still enjoy the qualities and specifications that make a Vespa so popular, but at a considerably lower price! You also benefit from the following advantages when you buy a used Vespa:

• Quality: Because Vespas are so expensive, they have a great reputation for quality. So whether you buy a new or a used one, you can be sure that the scooter will serve you for many years.
• Choice: Vespucci has a range of used Vespas available, in various models and styles. This means you are more likely to find a scooter that suits your wishes and needs.
• Available immediately: A used Vespa is available immediately and ready to ride. You simply order the Vespa you like and it will be delivered to you within a few days. Of course, you can also come and collect it yourself straight away.
• All the options and accessories you can imagine: Vespucci not only builds custom Vespas, it also buys in used custom Vespas. That is why Vespucci offers a wide range of used custom Vespas with countless options, accessories and unique colours.

Used Vespa Sprint

The used Vespa Sprint is by far the most popular: it is iconic, tough-looking, has a classic design and the power and performance of a modern scooter. The Vespa Sprint is equipped with a powerful and economical 50 cc engine, which offers you low running costs and low emissions. With a used Vespa Sprint you can enjoy a replacement model with all the quality and reliability of a new scooter, but at an affordable price. Even if you are not looking for a used Vespa Sprint, Vespucci is the right place for you. Besides the Sprint, we also offer a wide range of the Vespa Primavera, also used of course.  

A used Vespa is a personal choice

Choosing a used Vespa is a personal choice. Think carefully about what kind of scooter you want and which features you need and want. Also consider the cost: it is important to choose a vehicle that fits your budget. The price of a second-hand Vespa varies depending on, for example, the number and amount of options, the type of scooter, the mileage and the year of manufacture. If you are looking for a used Vespa, it is important to look carefully at the different options. Various models are available, each with its own features and benefits. Once you have decided which Vespa you want, it is important to assess the condition of the vehicle. Before a used Vespa scooter is offered at Vespucci, it is first thoroughly inspected by our Vespa specialists. For example, the tyres and brakes are always checked for safety. The Vespa has been one of the most popular scooters in the world since 1946. Thanks to its stylish looks and the reliability the vehicle offers, it is a favourite with both young and older people. It is a compact vehicle that is easy to manoeuvre in small towns and cities with narrow streets. What's more, a used Vespa offers an economical and clean alternative to cars.
