2012 Vespa "Vie Della Moda"
Special Edition

Vespa, the emblem of style, fashion
and distinction, dedicates an exclusive collection
of unique pieces to the most famous and glamorous
fashion runways: Vespa GTV and Vespa LXV, the most
prestigious vehicles in the range. New models which
for 2012 dress up in the elegant "Marrone Etna"
colour which enhances the timeless lines.
Vespa GTV and Vespa LXV "Vie della Moda"
stand out for refinement: In their forms and functions,
these new versions reinterpret the hallmark elements
of 1950's and 60's style.
Powered by an ultra-modern and powerful 300 cc liquid
cooled 4-stroke 4 valve engine or a scintillating
125 cc, 4-stroke powerplant - both of which with electronic
injection and Euro3 compliant - the Vespa GTV and
Vespa LXV "Vie della Moda" offer unrivalled
flexibility and responsiveness thanks to the use of
fuel injection, which also significantly curbs fuel
consumption and both gas and sound emissions.
The "Vie della Moda" badge, inspired by
the most famous street signs in the world's glamour
capitals, identifies the most elegant Vespas of all
and, emblazoned on the shield back plate, instantly
highlights the uniqueness of these alluring models.
VESPA GTV "Vie della Moda"
The headlight mounted on the front mudguard of the
GTV is a clear reference to the origins of the Vespa.
And so is the handlebar, the simple exposed metal
tube of the earliest Vespas that now reappears on
the Vespa GTV "Vie della Moda", and echoes
the trend seen in today's motorcycles.
The two-seat saddle in eco-leather is elegant and
comfortable, and as on the original Vespas, is split
into two separate elements, while the precision crafted
piping emphasises its silhouette. The particular colouring
of the saddle is realised with elegant covering colour-coded
with the vehicle in the refined "Marrone Etna",
the exclusive colour of the Vespa GTV "Vie della
Moda". The chrome finished, five spoke wheels
further enhance one of the most elegant Vespas of
all times.
VESPA LXV "Vie della Moda"
Offered in exclusive "Marrone Etna", the
Vespa LXV 125 "Vie della Moda" is the baby
vintage in the Vespa range treated, just as its bigger
sibling, the GTV, to all the improvements and styling
touches of pure 1960s style designed for this special
series. These are precious details which make the
Vespa LXV worthy heir to a unique history of elegance
and refinement.
The headlight assembly highlights the exposed handlebar
and lightens the aesthetics of the entire front end
of the vehicle. The distinctive instrumentation of
the vintage Vespa versions consists of an analogue
dial encircled by a chrome bezel, with graphics echoing
the style in vogue in the 1960s. The saddle, colour-coded
with the vehicle and a two-seater, is made in eco-leather.
The wheels, in the exclusive silver colour, convey
a further touch of elegance to the vehicle.
