Vespa service in Chennai

Is there a good service center for Vespa scooters in Chennai ? I have a 14yr old T5, which I hate to part with. I wont even get peanuts or perichambalam for that now.

The engine is great; but quite a few other parts need some love. New tyres, seats, headlight dome, brake/gear cables, and some de-rusting, dent removal/paint work.
Do we still get vespa spares? Is it worth doing it?

go to pudupet, you will get the spares, but finding a capable mechanic will be very tough.

There are a few shops in the GPRoad - Pudupet area that still stock LML spares. Ask around, other shop keepers are not hessitant to tell you where you will find them if they dont have it.

Re: Vespa service in Chennai

Apologise for me bringing back a thread from the dead, but I am currently in the lookout for good mechanics to restore an old Vespa. I was wondering if Ballkey could help me out on this. Thanks!
