I defend my right to admire something I like and equally comment on something I dislike.
It's not in any way personal.
It shows many signs of a 'Nam bodge. They are a real danger to life. Even more so if purchased by an innocent non-mechanical person who does not know what to look for.
I hope it really is just an oddity and that it has been lovingly restored. I personally doubt it.
As I said, nothing personal mate.

sorry but i know trojans work , an wouldnt have it as a "ornament" never mind riding it .an videos can be taken anywhere ,like trojan one ive seen with palm trees in the background . an 57 scoots didnt have chrome cable guides ,grey rubbers ,least they are on my 1 . am sorry if weve offended you ,but when sent a link you did take the bait , an 2500 for a bitsa , i guess we all know what kind of scooterist you are .using your "big farmhouse" (read i'm rich) to store scoots til a fat profits there eh . sorry but on here the credo's generally ridden not hidden ,thrash it til it breaks then fix it to go faster , an whats this crap about a "riding season" ,ive a helmet, scoots fuelled ,weathers just incidental. if thats not to your liking i reckon ya need to go back to polishing ya lame-bed-wetters . lv Henri an yes lads ,its been a hard/wet/windy day an i stopped at church for a "prayer" on way home ,then sainsbo's for some bible practice/prayer at home .

Video link - you can see around the scoot much better here.
Things that are wrong with it my friend: I am guessing smallie front end with a vbb rear end welded on, whatever handlebars they had sitting around the workshop and some kind of bastardisation of a smallie engine fitted - still can't figure out what they have done with the kickstart. Smallframes have never had removable rear panels, electric start, ignition under the seat, or indeed any ignition switch at all for that age of scooter.
I feel sorry for you if you bought this in good faith from Trojan, it is quite obvious from the video that the owner doesn't have a clue what he is on about or the scooter he is selling. He is really just describing what the scooter is now - it is rare cos it was never made by Piaggio!
Would be great if you could provide some photos of what is under the side panels and fuel tank/seat to satisfy our curiosity.

I was looking for ages for that video - thanks for sharing and putting my mind to rest - you are quite correct, the seller doesn't know what he is talking about - 3 speed 50 electric start from 1967 - that is rare! would have thought the only one in existence,, maybe they should sell it back to Piaggio for their museum -

Excuse my French. Pile of shit.
I would not trust that and nor would I have the front to sell it.
I could not live with the consequences of the potential outcome of a rideout on it.

I notice the guy who commented in this thread said he'd owned it for 3 years 'as an ornament', yet the listing says its recently been bought for his wife? Its a different seller on ebay than the listing at the start of this thread though so perhaps its changed hands in the meantime?
And the guy on this thread stated "it has been restored/customised by Trojan vehicles of portmouth" yet in that video from Trojan they say they didn't do the work.
Hmmm.

I can easily imagine some dude buying this, taking it down to his mates to show of his really cool rare Vespa and being laughed all the way back to his computer with his tail between his legs to list it once again on ebay.

Words fail me.... WTF just about sums it up.
Trying desperately to get their money back from working out they made a big mistake - also comes to mind.
Also Georgie Fame - ? Should have chosen - The Milestones - The Joker.... !
