Well it looks like its a-comin back in 2011 then which will please Vespa Geared scooter fans who cant live without gears and a 2-stroke engine. It may be Mr.Slow but they will be clamouring to get orders in for this latest incarnation of the good old PX type in either 125cc or 150cc engine. Bit of a shame a 200 is not on offer…as yet, but Piaggio said it was the end of the line for the PX last time round so anything could happen would be my guess. It will be interesting to see what colours they offer this one up in as well and the reintroduction of the geared machine is good news for younger scooter fans who want to stay away from those nasty auto things and dose up on some classic style. WEY HEY!

Looks like they are doing new colours as well, new seat design and more safety. It can be seen in this video along with a few girls one of which might come with the scoot..

Looks like a local dealer may be looking at a launch event so will keep you posted here as it may make a bit of a ride out as well for April 2011.

Looks riding a Vespa turns you into a grinning simpleton, I think theres much evidence to back that up!
