Vespa Px 150
The Vespa PX 150 was introduced by Piaggio in 1977 as a successor to the Vespa Rally and large-frame Sprint series, featuring a redesigned body with angular styling that became iconic. It underwent several updates over its long production run, including the addition of an electric start variant and fuel injection (PX 150 E) in later years, making it one of the longest-produced scooter models in history. The PX series is widely regarded as the definitive classic Vespa, beloved for its all-metal construction, two-stroke engine simplicity, and timeless design that kept it in production into the 2010s.

What Buyers Should Know
Bulletproof 2-Stroke Engine
The PX 150's rotary valve 2-stroke engine is renowned for lasting well over 100,000 km with basic maintenance. Its simple design means fewer parts to fail and easy DIY repairs.
Watch the Gearbox
The selector box and gear cables are common wear points — always test all 4 gears before buying. Worn selector pawls can cause missed or stuck gears and are an early red flag.
Strong Resale Value
The PX 150 holds its value exceptionally well due to its cult following and discontinued production status. Well-maintained examples often sell at or above purchase price in many markets.
