Scooter News Piaggio Network Expands New regional dealers appointed to the Piaggio Network.
Piaggio Australia Piaggio Australia has announced the addition of two new dealers
to its network. Redline Motosports (Mick Hansen and Lyle Gilmore)
in Mackay QLD and Suncity Motorcycles' (Brett & Leah Gannon) in
Geraldton W.A.
These new dealerships have joined a carefully selected list of
service points in regional Australia.
"We've always been extra careful when selecting dealers," said
Piaggio's Marketing Manager Mal Jarrett. "The idea is to have a
good geographical spread, so people know that when they buy a
Piaggio, they can have peace of mind that they can still get top
service and after sales advice, especially in regional areas.
Redline Motosports are located at 24-26 Grandview Drive Mt Pleasant
(Mackay) (07) 49634500 and Suncity Motorcycles
can be found at 1 Flores Road Webberton (Geraldton) (08) 9921

There is only one Vespa and it remains the iconic scooter brand
with its unique metal-bodied design. Nestled in the Tuscan
countryside between Florence and Pisa, the first Vespa was invented
in 1946 by the Piaggio Company, and helped liberate a war-torn
Italy.
Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck in "Roman Holiday" were only the
first of a long series of international actors and actresses to be
seen on the world's most famous scooter. In photo shoots, films and
on the set, the Vespa has been a "travel companion" for names like
Raquel Welch, Ursula Andress, Geraldine Chaplin, Joan Collins,
Jayne Mansfield, Virna Lisi, Milla Jovovich, Marcello Mastroianni,
Charlton Heston, John Wayne, Henry Fonda, Gary Cooper, Anthony
Perkins, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Nanni Moretti, Sting, Antonio
Banderas, Matt Damon, Gérard Depardieu, Jude Law, Nicole
Kidman, Eddie Murphy and Owen Wilson, to name but a few.
