1988 Piaggio Vespa PX 200 E Elestart

Few things capture the pleasure of getting out and about quite like a classic Vespa. Its unmistakable curves, cheerful two-stroke soundtrack and hands-on riding experience turn even a quick coffee run into something to look forward to.

This 1988 PX 200 E Elestart pairs a 198 cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine with a four-speed manual gearbox, selected through the traditional handlebar twist grip. Working through the gears is all part of the enjoyment, giving the rider a connection to the machine that defines the classic Vespa experience. Electric starting adds everyday convenience, with a kick-start retained for backup.

Finished in Black with an aged patina, a contrasting Tan/Brown seat and matching trim accents, this example has plenty of character. A chrome front luggage rack and twin mirrors complement its unmistakable Vespa silhouette, while the odometer indicates 48,712 km.

Whether heading to a favourite café, joining a weekend scooter run or adding some Italian character to the garage, this PX 200 E offers a charming way to enjoy the ride. Pull on your helmet, pick a destination and let the coffee wait a little longer.
