            Poor services network
            When I bought the Vespa VXL 125 scooter in the year 2021, I had no idea the unreliability I would face. Whenever I visit the Rajajinagar, Bangalore authorized service center, replacement spare parts are not in stock. Always poor services without even a half-complete network of spare parts. Do not buy this scooter under any circumstances.

            Beautiful and dependable
            I own a Vespa VXL 125 scooter for a long time now and I can say that I have no problems with it. It has contemporary characteristics like a digital analog instrument cluster, USB charging port, and ABS to deliver comfort and safety. From short city rides to long trips, the Vespa Elegant is practical and perfect for all of them while being always beautiful and dependable.
