AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Terrot 125 EP is an emblematic model of French motorcycles designed in Dijon by engineer Edmond Padovani (hence the initials “EP”). Presented at the Paris Salon in October 1946 and delivered from spring 1947, it represents the brand’s last major commercial success with more than 150,000 units sold. It enabled many French people to move around daily after World War II thanks to its robustness and economical use.
