AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Piaggio - Vespa 50 R (Renewed) - Frame V5A1T -

​Up for auction: an iconic Vespa 50 R (Renewed)

This specimen presents itself in a vivid red finish, preserving all the charm of Piaggio's smallframe design

​Main Features:
​Model: Vespa 50 R (V5A1T).
​Wheels: 9-inch wheel version (typical of the R series).
​Engine: Original engine case from the V5A1M series, 50cc engine with 3 gears.
The bodywork shows an authentic patina and original paint with some signs of wear and superficial scratches (as visible in the photo on the front fender and on the handlebars), which testify to its history

​Seat: Equipped with a long ET3/Primavera-type saddle, ideal for greater comfort.

The Vespa is complete with all its main components (front badge, the inscriptions "Vespa" and "Vespa 50", original headlights)

The floorboard is solid, although it shows the classic holes for rubber mats and some signs of surface oxidation that make it a perfect base for a restoration or to be kept in its current state as a "conserved lived-in" condition.

​The engine runs but a general overhaul is recommended before putting it on the road after a period of inactivity.

For shipping, arrangements can be made after purchase.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
