I would not hesitate to recommend Greg and the team at Planet Vespa. Greg’s communication was excellent and his knowledge of how the whole importing process works was invaluable. They built me my dream scooter exactly how I wanted, it arrived in perfect condition and I couldn’t be happier. It even came with some spares and a bottle of touch up paint.
I don’t know about other scooter restoration services, but this is one you can trust.

If you’re looking for a vintage Vespa, fully restored to “better than new” Planet Vespa is the place to go. Forget the bad press about Asian scooters, Greg has been doing this for a long time, and to a very high standard, nothing is too much trouble, anything you want, you can have. Greg always replies to e-mails very quickly. Finances permitting I will buy another.

Top notch restoration on a 1965 VBC Super. As many have mentioned, we too were a little skeptical buying a bike from Vietnam until we read all the great reviews and thoroughly looked through the information on Planet Vespa to gain the confidence we needed to proceed with the purchase. We are very happy and impressed with the craftsmanship and attention to detail Greg and his team put forth on this Vespa. All this and great communication through emails will make our decision easy when we move forward with another one.

Thanks again Greg….awesome job!

Best Vintage Vespa you can get. The quality of their restoration is just amazing. They shipped inside a crate that is was solid. The bike arrived in perfect conditions. It started on the first kick after I watched their step by step video.
Anyone are more than welcome to send me an email with any questions you may have or if you are close to Jacksonville and want to check it out, just let me know.

A year ago, I suddenly had a heart failure due to unexplained angina. Thankfully, I have been miraculously saved and now live a healthy life. So I decided to get the old Vespa car that I had dreamed of for a long time with the insurance money at that time

When I was searching various vendors dealing with old Vespa cars online, it happened to be Greg’s site.

As Planet Vespa was a Vietnamese supplier, I was worried about the quality of Southeast Asia, but when I read Greg’s website, I could feel the passion for repairing it.

As a representative Japanese who is not good at English, I sent a consultation email to Greg with the help of google translation. Greg immediately replied and solved my anxiety and doubt at once. After that, transactions proceeded smoothly by exchanging over 100 emails in total.

Currently, I have run 2000 km and the period of running-in has ended, but I am running smoothly without problems. And looking at my Vespa made in 1964, everyone enviously believes this is a new scooter.
This is proof that Greg’s work is so great.

I’m unlucky to have a sudden heart disease, but at the same time I’m lucky enough to get Greg’s Vespa.

I highly recommend Planet Vespa. Thanks Greg and his team!

When I found Planet Vespa website while researching purchasing a restored Vespa, I knew, this is the place. From assisting me in selecting the color and options, keeping me informed during the restoration, providing info on the shipment and customs brokers, to checking with me once I picked up my Vespa from US Customs, Greg and his team took care of me. When I uncrated my Vespa, I was astonished at the attention to detail and craftmanship put in to the restoration. Whenever I have a question on a maintenance aspect, I can rely on an answer being in my InBox the next morning. Coolest thing, when someone comes in my garage and sees the Vespa, to prove it is a 1965, I love pulling out the vintage Vietnam license plate provided. Cool idea to include the vintage plate. Thanks so much, Planet Vespa!
