1980 Vespa P200E – 2,842 Miles – Excellent Original Condition – Clean Virginia Title

This 1980 Vespa P200E shows just 2,842 original miles and remains in very good to excellent unrestored condition. Finished in burgundy, the scooter was acquired by the seller in 2026 and has been maintained in running, road‑ready condition. Power comes from an air‑cooled 198cc two‑stroke single paired with a four‑speed manual transmission operated via the left‑hand twist‑grip.

The scooter starts easily, runs exceptionally well, and is currently registered in Virginia. Included with the sale are the original multi‑language parts manual, a vintage date‑adjustable calendar, and a period sales brochure.

Factory‑correct equipment includes:

• Dual mirrors

• Two‑up seat with passenger backrest

• Center stand

• Turn signals

• Working horn

• Full‑size spare wheel mounted beneath the left side cover

• Fully functional street lighting and horn

The scooter rides on 10-inch steel wheels fitted with Michelin S83 tires, with braking handled by drum brakes front and rear. Suspension consists of Vespa’s classic single‑sided trailing‑link front end and a single rear shock.

When new, the 198cc two‑stroke produced 12 horsepower, delivering power to the rear wheel through the four‑speed manual gearbox. This P200E is offered with a clean Virginia title in the seller’s name.

Shipping can be coordinated at the buyer’s expense.

Collector’s Notes: Classic Vintage Vespa

Vintage Vespa P‑series scooters in this level of original condition are increasingly difficult to find. This example is 45 years old and shows fewer than 3,000 miles, making it a true survivor. Collectors place a premium on scooters that retain their factory paint, original components, and authentic patina—this is not a candidate for restoration or repainting.

The P200E is Vespa’s most desirable vintage model, offering highway‑capable performance, comfortable two‑up riding, and excellent reliability. This scooter also features the sought‑after Tower-brand side cowl guards and the iconic BBQ‑style rear luggage rack, both desirable period accessories.

The asking price is $6,800 or best offer, representing strong value given its originality, low mileage, and well‑preserved condition.
