Hi,

I've found a model Piaggio Vespa GS150, in silver. It's 1:12 scale. However, the perplexing thing is, it's made by Autoart.

Now, I've never been aware of Autoart making bikes - can anybody confirm this and give me more details on the model?

Cheers,

autoart

Hi there

I can assure you that AUTOart do in fact have a very small number of bikes, including the Vespa you mention, see below:



They retail for £32.99 and are 1:12 scale as you say. The quality is superb, akin to Minichamps quality for their bikes, if not a litle better

I have often mentioned to the guys at AUTOart in the UK about the bike range and if they intend increasing their range further. They do plan more, but it is all about time, resources and choosing the right bikes to recreate. Here is their current range:

Not huge I admit, but here's looking to the future...

The prices of models in general are starting to creep up a little. Due mainly to the cost of stock raw materials incresing in China.
