The PX 200 is a model of Vespa scooter produced between 1977 and 2007. With a manual transmission and retro styling, even late model PX 200s are reminiscent of the classic Vespa scooters of decades past. The powerful 198cc engine, however, makes the PX 200 a capable performer suitable for the most image-conscious urban rider.
