marino28 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Good morning, just find out that the Vespa gts 300 super is now for sale in Thailand with abs and traction control for 195900 thb. Before if I remember right the price was 310000. So a very big price reduction. I was thinking to buy the news xmax, but after I discover the reduction of price in the Vespa 300 I am not sure again what to choose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NormanW Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 You certainly pay in Thailand to be different! Wouldn't have one given! I suppose we're all different! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marino28 Posted September 1, 2017 Author Share Posted September 1, 2017 With the new price tag the Vespa 300 is actually cheaper than in Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Issanman Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 It's well worth considering this scooter at that price. High tech, steel body Italian scooter. A modern classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Guns Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I had a Vespa GTS Supersport and it was a brilliant little bike. Its the only bike I regret selling. It was dead easy to sell and I didn't lose much there was a queue of Thai customers. My wife loved it and it always got loads of admiring comments from locals. If you're single you'll find yourself with many interested ladies. The handling is top notch, build quality is very good and they are quite nippy. It's got the feel good factor you don't get with a Japanese bike and you feel like you're riding something a bit special. I think I'm talking myself into getting another one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MINIMIGLIA Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 But so grossly overpriced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VocalNeal Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Just wondering? Maybe? Just maybe they have started manufacturing in Vietnam? So the duty and excise are now less?

idman Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Yes, let me run right out and buy a Yamaha Filano look a like. Not even if someone were generous enough to pay for it. There's a sucker born every minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I'm talking myself into getting another one As an owner of a GTS 125 I agree 100%. Not sure I can add much except the 300 must go like shit off a shovel too, my little 125 is well fast enough. The Italians just do it better than anyone else, with style and feel good, we also have a new 125 Filano, not a patch on the Vespa. But if you just want 0-60 figures and bangs for you you buck, you just won't get what Vespa have to offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canopus1969 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 I have a GTS and the wife a Sprint as she is smaller :) as well as the usual Jap plastic, and can say the difference is incredible, the GTS is a dream to ride any distance in comfort.

AllanB Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 With all the happy kms we have done on the Vespa, it will be a big comedown to use the Filano next month, okay for the shops but I cannot imagine doing any more trips on it. It will such a come down, have to get the old big bike fixed for the road trips and wait for the next Asian trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
