The description of this auction item is, to the seller's knowledge, accurate and not misleading. Before the description is approved by the seller, Bidders Highway gathers a range of details about the listing from the seller and performs a level of background checks. However, it is up to the bidder to ensure that the description is correct and to do whatever research they deem necessary before placing a bid which is then binding. Bidders Highway does not carry out a full inspection of the object and the transaction is between the buyer and the seller. We encourage all potential bidders to ask questions and use the comments section for additional information. See our general terms and conditions for full details.

Fyrtaktsmotor står det men det är väl fel misstänker jag ? Mvh Roger, Gbg
Looks like full of errors in the description. This model is called Vespa 150 GL or Touring in Sweden. Not ‘wide body’. It is a model with model prefix VGL1. It was built between 1957-58. So the model year of 1959 is incorrect. It also has a two stroke engine and not four stroke obviously. There are no photos of the engine below the right side panel which is a shame. Comparing it to Vespa 50 is out of place as that was introduced in 1963 and is a completely different design.
