Vespa Scooters Are Taking the Tidewater and Hampton Roads Virginia Area By Storm

Sept. 2, 2009 - PRLog -- Would you ride a wasp?
The Vespa name translated means wasp.
Vespa scooters are the brainchild of 26 year old Enrico Piaggio, who began the production of these sharp, zippy little scooters toward the end of World War 2 at their factory in Biella, and was actually nicknamed Donald Duck (via translation of the Paperino name given to it by the engineers.)
The Vespa scooters were orginally designed to be tough, elegant, and simple transportation for the masses, due to the rebuilding nature of the after-the-war economic landscape.
In 1946, over 2400 of the Piaggio scooters were sold, mainly through the Lancia network.
The original Vespa scooters were ergonomically designed before ergonomics were eveb considered a factor in building transportation vehicles.
The Vespa scooter production volume surpassed 1 million units sold in 1956, which was quite a milestone for the fledgling brand, and it surpassed 2 million units the 4 years later in 1960, and has continued to break sales records every year since.
http://www.RKAutoGroup.com, based in the Tidewater Virginia area, Virginia Beach, purchased their franchise just as the gas prices were rocketing through the 5 dollar mark back in 2007-2008.
Their timing could not have been better, and you see many of the zippy little scooters flying around the Hampton Roads and Tidewater area, including the ocean front resort area where the 'parking violation' brigade ride their Vespas in the daily duties.
The Vespa scooters get between 40-80 miles to the gallon, depending on the model, and they require absolutely no license to operate, even though you can operate them on public highways.
The http://www.RKAutoGroup.com is one of Hampton Roads' oldest dealerships, already selling Chevrolet, Subaru, Toyoya and Scion, and they also have multiple used car stores as well, but they are quickly becoming known as Vespa scooter heaven for the eastern Virginia area.
the Vespa scooters are exceptionally affordable, ranging in price from $3500 up to $7000.00, which coupled with their exceptional gas mileage, makes them the zippy little scooter that is fun, affordable, and practical.
