About the Reviewer

Ridden for (If Owned)	0-5000 km
Got mileage of	40 kmpl

I am a Vespa owner for the past three months in kochi and I have to say that the after sales services provided by Vespa and aprilia dealer is no where near to even the standards of Honda or hero scooter services. My scooter had major electrical issues from the factory and died completely while on road during a Christmas midnight. Then I had to push the scooter all the way to my home and called road side assistance in the morning and they came and took the scooter to the service Centre and I picked it up two days later with the rear number plate dented and scratched. Again the same electrical issue happened and this time I met with an accident as a result of it. After questioning them their quality of services and expressing my frustration of spending 1.4 lakhs on a scooter that constantly breaks down, they agreed to look into it thoroughly and they replaced the complete fly wheel magneto assembly. I reported the same to vespa customer care and till now, I have not received a follow up call from them. As a result of the accident, my brand new scooter has scratches on its body and when I asked them to fix it as it was not caused due to my negligence, they just painted the center stand after I insisted a lot and said that the rest of the scratches are negligible. As I didn't have time to spare behind this vehicle anymore, I just left it as it is and is thinking of fixing it under insurance later. I have to say that any people looking forward to buying aprilia or vespa must make sure that the dealer who services your vehicle has a good reputation and is committed. I had a small talk with the new customers of Vespa and Aprilia and have come to know that some are facing electrical issues with the vehicle. So, please research well before spending such a huge amount of money. Even though I am a Vespa owner, I don't find it worth spending so much considering its low mileage, dearer spare parts and low quality after sales service. I would personally not recommend any of their scooters to my dear and near ones as a person who is using it daily. The electrical issue that I had come across is just one among all the issues that I have faced since purchase. The other issues include, engine oil leak from drain bolt and engine oil filler cap after first service due to failure to replace the respective gaskets, water ingression in rear left indicator due to a broken indicator assembly from factory which I fixed using araldite and ignition coil fault that caused frequent ignition failures. All these have happened only within the second service of this scooter and I feel like selling this scooter off as soon as possible but is still holding onto it because of the huge amount of money that I have spent on it. So, please verify with anyone whom you know have purchased from a dealer nearby you before spending such a large amount. If you have no sources then, at least check for google reviews and read all reviews carefully. Please, I have suffered a lot and now i don't want anybody else falling unknowingly into their 'premium experience' tagline. So, kindly research a lot and invest your hard earned money wisely.

Struggling to get it serviced and get spare parts. Actually me and my few friends brought it on 2012 . Only the first six months we got the service and after that they closed. The service station was within 13 km. After there was an other service centre located 25 km. Next year they closed. Now the next one is 45 km far. I was abroad for 10 years, and using this only on my vacations. The other friends really fed up with this vehicle.
The performance of this scooter is really good. Only complaint about the service.

Brilliant Performance & Power with Retro Styling
1 year ago
Deepak Vilayatkar
This is one of the best vehicles I owned, Riding posture is appropriate, and stable on the road due to its single-frame chassis, 3 valve engine enables you to move swiftly you have power when needed and this is the best feature of this bike, engine is awesome.
Retro looks to add value to your ride and style, color never fades you wash it and it's just like a new one. services are no worries, yes you may have to wait for some spares sometimes but overall it's not a cause of worry.
Pros:
1. Value for money
2. Best-in-class engine performance and power.
3. Stability on the Road is brilliant.
4. Looks are amazing.
Cons:
1. Small tires increase the chances of skidding.
2. Not for fuel economy.

Worse experience with Vespa
1 year ago
Sindhu R C
Poor experience with all means except looks. I had purchased my dream scooter Vespa on 22/4/2021 with lot of expectation. But from that date onwards, more than 10 times. I went to service center. Problems like Starting problem, more than 3 times I changed battery. Cut cut sound coming while riding. Speedometer complaint, Sudden off scooter while driving.
Then after quicker start required for restart. Such a worst scooter, I can't explain. Please nobody choose this scooter

A disaster not recommended for hilly areas
1 year ago
Anshul
This scooter is very good for riding even long rides. The major everyone will face is the lack of power. I ride this in shimla & the engine just chokes even in slight elevation. The service team has done every job they could. They changed the roller, belt, etc but all failed. Now they asked that they will change the complete gear part named "reduction gear". They charged me about 4k for it. It improved a bit but the result is still not worth it.

Please don't buy this vehicle. Waste vehicle I have ever seen.....Vespa vxl 125
1 year ago
Ano
I have purchased vespa vxl 125 from aluva,ambattukavu showroom.
My review is
If you are having another scooter it's okay. From day 1 of purchase, I was facing issues. The first issue was sound came while riding(disc issue). The next day I visited the showroom and was given for service after 1 week the same issue came. Now it's been 2 years and I have to visit the showroom once or twice within 3 months.
The service center is very waste and the people don't know anything about the services.
Now mileage getting is only 35. waste of vehicles and the company.

I won't recommend this bike to anyone very poor build quality and the showroom service was the worst.
Whenever I went for service they took almost 2 days for service and some parts are not available in the showroom
It was high maintenance bike and less mileage
The service cost of vespa bikes was too high
My speedo meter wire always breaks I already changed it 3 times.

Good vehicle but not recommended as parts not available.

Anirban Mondal
The vehicle is good and comfortable. Acceleration is superb.
I brought from malda, west bengal. Now there is no service center.
Only one service center in Kolkata. Required parts are not available there when required.
Parts should be available in local markets or automobile stores, otherwise, the brand will lose its trust.

Beauty turns to a horror
2 years ago
Athira A S
Got this beautiful piece of the bike with lots of excitement. But gradually got to know the horrors hidden behind this bike. Long trips cannot be gone with this, because any problem with the vespa will not be handled by normal mechanics, the engine is located very close to the ground due to which less ground clearance. When we have any issues related to the bike the service center of Vespa fails to rectify them even after repeated requests. Mileage is also the least compared to other bikes on market.
Very disappointed with Vespa.

The bike is working but spares will not be available outside the service centre when you give in service centre they will do the service late and the service cost is too much even brake wires also not available outside the service centre they kept a monopoly and looting the pockets of the customers worst sales policy.

Brilliant Performance & Power with Retro Styling
1 year ago
Deepak Vilayatkar
This is one of the best vehicles I owned, Riding posture is appropriate, and stable on the road due to its single-frame chassis, 3 valve engine enables you to move swiftly you have power when needed and this is the best feature of this bike, engine is awesome.
Retro looks to add value to your ride and style, color never fades you wash it and it's just like a new one. services are no worries, yes you may have to wait for some spares sometimes but overall it's not a cause of worry.
Pros:
1. Value for money
2. Best-in-class engine performance and power.
3. Stability on the Road is brilliant.
4. Looks are amazing.
Cons:
1. Small tires increase the chances of skidding.
2. Not for fuel economy.

Worse experience with Vespa
1 year ago
Sindhu R C
Poor experience with all means except looks. I had purchased my dream scooter Vespa on 22/4/2021 with lot of expectation. But from that date onwards, more than 10 times. I went to service center. Problems like Starting problem, more than 3 times I changed battery. Cut cut sound coming while riding. Speedometer complaint, Sudden off scooter while driving.
Then after quicker start required for restart. Such a worst scooter, I can't explain. Please nobody choose this scooter

A disaster not recommended for hilly areas
1 year ago
Anshul
This scooter is very good for riding even long rides. The major everyone will face is the lack of power. I ride this in shimla & the engine just chokes even in slight elevation. The service team has done every job they could. They changed the roller, belt, etc but all failed. Now they asked that they will change the complete gear part named "reduction gear". They charged me about 4k for it. It improved a bit but the result is still not worth it.

Please don't buy this vehicle. Waste vehicle I have ever seen.....Vespa vxl 125
1 year ago
Ano
I have purchased vespa vxl 125 from aluva,ambattukavu showroom.
My review is
If you are having another scooter it's okay. From day 1 of purchase, I was facing issues. The first issue was sound came while riding(disc issue). The next day I visited the showroom and was given for service after 1 week the same issue came. Now it's been 2 years and I have to visit the showroom once or twice within 3 months.
The service center is very waste and the people don't know anything about the services.
Now mileage getting is only 35. waste of vehicles and the company.

Don't buy
1 year ago
Sai
I won't recommend this bike to anyone very poor build quality and the showroom service was the worst.
Whenever I went for service they took almost 2 days for service and some parts are not available in the showroom
It was high maintenance bike and less mileage
The service cost of vespa bikes was too high
My speedo meter wire always breaks I already changed it 3 times.

Good vehicle but not recommended as parts not available.
1 year ago
Anirban Mondal
The vehicle is good and comfortable. Acceleration is superb.
I brought from malda, west bengal. Now there is no service center.
Only one service center in Kolkata. Required parts are not available there when required.
Parts should be available in local markets or automobile stores, otherwise, the brand will lose its trust.

Beauty turns to a horror
2 years ago
Athira A S
Got this beautiful piece of the bike with lots of excitement. But gradually got to know the horrors hidden behind this bike. Long trips cannot be gone with this, because any problem with the vespa will not be handled by normal mechanics, the engine is located very close to the ground due to which less ground clearance. When we have any issues related to the bike the service center of Vespa fails to rectify them even after repeated requests. Mileage is also the least compared to other bikes on market.
Very disappointed with Vespa.
