Anyone like vespas?

[Anyone like vespas]

So guys, basically i bought a vespa from a guy at work, I'm not going to boast about the amount i got it for, but perhaps one of you lot could tell me what you'd pay for it?
It is a 1972 (tax exempt) Vespa Douglas 125
It has been converted to the more reliable CDI
It has a malossi cylinder and head
It is in fair nick, little spots of chipped paint, but nothing major
Starts and runs,
The gear cables need adjusting,
Needs new tires for MOT!
But yeah, it runs and rides
I was thinking of maybe 800 - 1000 pounds? Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm totally new to the whole vespa scene xD
Here is the pic


Cheers you lot

Well it was actually me that started this thread, i don't know why it came up like that!

also how the heck did it get 225 views? only started a few mins ago.
know very little about the value of vespa's but if it has lasted since 1972 it's gotta be worth something.

No idea what it's worth, looks great though

Your name came up like that because you probably were'nt signed in, so it used the title as your guest name

at between £1200 - £1700 or even more as vespas keep there
