🛵✨🏆 BIG NEWS FROM VINTAGE METALS! 🏆✨🛵

We are incredibly proud to announce that Vintage Metals will be sponsoring the Scooter Competition at this year's The Bristol Modernist, 60's & Scooter Weekenders. 2026! 🎉

This event is one of the highlights of the scooter calendar, bringing together some of the finest Vespas, Lambrettas, custom builds and restored classics from across the country. 🇬🇧🔥

As lifelong scooter enthusiasts, we're honoured to support an event that celebrates the passion, craftsmanship and dedication that keeps our scene thriving. From concours restorations to stunning customs, every scooter tells a story and represents countless hours of hard work, creativity and love. ❤️🛠️

🏅 To be part of recognising those efforts is something we're genuinely excited about.

These are the things that make our scene so special and why events like this deserve our full support.

Remembering Mark Levell 💙🛵

A true Mechanical Artist, creative soul and great friend.

We were incredibly honoured that Mark trusted Vintage Metals to showcase two of his scooters in our showroom. They stood proudly and were admired by so many… just like the man himself.

Mark’s passion, talent and imagination shone through in every creation. His work was more than scooters — it was art.

As a small tribute, we’ve put together two short clips showcasing some of his incredible work and legacy.

Ride free Mark. You’ll be greatly missed. 🛵💙

🖤🛵 READY FOR ITS FOREVER HOME 🛵🖤

Today we say goodbye to this stunning 1964 Vespa 150 (125cc) – "Midnight Glide" as it heads off to its forever home.

Finished in an elegant matte black, this classic Vespa has been tailored to its new owner's exact requirements, featuring:

✔️ Single saddle & buddy seat
✔️ Rear luggage rack
✔️ Spare wheel carrier & spare tyre
✔️ Mirror
✔️ Plenty of timeless Italian style

At Vintage Metals, we love making each scooter unique to its owner, and this one is a perfect example of how a few carefully chosen additions can completely transform a scooter's character.

The Midnight Glide now begins its next chapter, ready to create new memories and adventures on the road.

A huge thank you to our customer for trusting us with their vision. We wish you many miles of smiles and unforgettable journeys ahead.

🛵 Missed out on this one? Don't worry — we have a range of similar classic Vespas and Lambrettas currently in stock, all restored with the same attention to detail and ready for their next adventure.

🛵❤️ CUSTOMER SPOTLIGHT ❤️🛵

There’s something special about seeing one of our scooters doing exactly what it was built for… being ridden, enjoyed and becoming part of new memories.

We were delighted to receive these photos from one of our customers who took his 1974 LAMBRETTA GP150 (200cc) – Arthur Francis Colourway out on a ride out with Reigate Scooter Club 🛵🔥

Seeing this scooter out with fellow enthusiasts, surrounded by club spirit and scooter culture, is exactly what it’s all about. These machines aren’t made to sit still… they’re built for the road, the ride outs and the memories made along the way.

A huge thank you for sharing the photos with us and for giving this beautiful GP the life it deserves.

Ride safe and keep flying the flag for scooter culture ❤️🛵

❤️ A LOVE STORY ON TWO WHEELS ❤️

Today was a special one at Vintage Metals… 🛵🇮🇹

This stunning 1962 Vespa 150 (125cc) – Spirito Italiano has found its new home after being purchased by a husband as an anniversary surprise for his wife ❤️🎁

Finished in the colours of Italy and full of timeless charm, this scooter represents everything we love about the classic scooter world - passion, memories and creating moments that last a lifetime.

🎀 To make the handover even more special, we added some ribbons and finishing touches because occasions like this deserve that extra bit of magic.

Seeing the smiles at handover reminds us that these scooters are so much more than machines… they become part of people’s stories ❤️

From everyone at Vintage Metals, we would like to wish you both a very happy anniversary and many unforgettable rides and memories together 🥂🛵

Thank you for letting us be a small part of your journey ❤️

Ride safe and enjoy your beautiful Spirito Italiano 🇮🇹🛵
