It's Very Pretty, but where do you put your shopping?
It just seems like an exercise in style over function.

In the immortal words of Andy of Little Britain fame " Dont like it "

What Piaggio need to do is to fit a modern 4 stroke engine to the PX and offer it with manual or automatic transmission.
Oh hang on a sec LML have beaten them to it :lol:

I might be wrong (and often am :oops: ) but I cant see many people being willing to shell out £3000 odd for one of these things ( The Quatrasei not the LML )

It would be better than shelling out similar money for a Symbretta.

Beauty as they say "is in the eye of the beholder"
If I had to choose between a Quarantasei or a "Symbretta" I would rather have the latter but should £3000 suddenly appear in my bank account as if by magic :) (fat chance of that happening :( ) I would either choose a new LML 200, or a decent 2nd hand Vespa GTS / Maxi Scoot.
