| 3. A HISTORY OF THE DOUGLAS VESPA
|
| Veteran Vespa Club UK
The Douglas company of Kingswood, Bristol, commenced motorcycle production in 1907. By 1948 it was effectively bankrupt, actually going into receivership that year. When on holiday in Italy that year the Managing Director, Claude McCormack, caught sight of a Vespa and soon made arrangements with Piaggio to build it under licence in Bristol.

| Many photos.
This Douglas is new to me and Douglas in general is a completely new area for me too. I can't wait to get this one out on the road and have a feeling that I'll really enjoy it. First impressions are very good and the Douglas has a real feeling of quality about it. The EW is very light and the styling is very pronounced giving it a real flair. |
