The charisma of classic cars, brought to you by {name}

Franco Vigorito

A body-off restored Vespa 400 microcar from year or production 24 Apr 1959. The original engine and gearbox were reconditioned by Vespa 5 years ago. Three years ago, the total restoration begun and it was recently completed. The car was delivered new in France and now, after the inspection, provided with a Belgian classic car registration. Everything has been renewed by a professional restoration company and recorded on DVD, it was painted in the original delivered color.

Provided with:
new convertible top
new logos
new taillights
new indicators
new headlights
New window rubbers
New door seals
new tires
new brake lines
new brake cylinders
New ball joints
new door locks
new carpeting
new seat upholstery with white piping
new stainless steel exhaust
new Varta battery
New moldings around

The Vespa microcar features the original 2-stroke engine, so engine number and chassis number correspond with each other. Definitely one of the finest examples in existence. Everything is in mint condition and works perfectly. After the restoration it has only been driven to the inspection for the Belgian oldtimer registration. Only driven about 30 km. No signs of wear.

This vehicle can be viewed and picked up in Pijnacker, the Netherlands. 

Bids do not include transportation or export, unless indicated otherwise. 

This is a used vehicle. It is advisable to view the vehicle before bidding, to avoid disappointment afterwards. For a viewing appointment or more info, please contact Catawiki.


Restored - in as new condition - 2 cylinder 393 cc with 14 hp - 2-stroke - 3 gears - top speed of 85 km/h

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
