So you have bought a scooter without knowing exactly what it is you have bought? well, each to their own I guess!
It looks to me like a Sportique/VBB with a 10" wheel conversion, it is not a Sprint nor a Super, panels and back light are wrong for both of those models.
Check the frame number against the list on here:
scooterhelp.com
That is the only sure way to tell..

Well Its not a sprint or a Sportique either, headset wrong for a sprint and mudguard is wrong for a sportique, if you cant identify it on scooter help and when i say that i mean engine and frame come up as the same scooter i would have a re-think?  ? |

Ok mate, well on the basis that you have not bought it yet, my advice is check it out very, very carefully before you take the plunge.
I am pretty certain you will find it is a Vietnamese import, which means it will be bits and pieces of god knows what under a nice shiny paint job...

sadly..i tend to agree..the two tone paintjob is typical viet style, and..the toolbox & mudguard looks exactly like my bajaj , check it out good pal

Without any shadow of a doubt it's a nammer piece of sh*t.
Bad two tone paint job? Check
PX styled centre mat? Check
Crome legshield trim>? Check
10" Wheel conversion and what looks like a P range engine? Check
Crap chrome panel trim? Check
Chrome fork stem check? Check
Without being able to see it, I'll bet it has a chrome number plate trim with a small lip at the bottom, and either 'Piaggio' or 'Vespa' stamped in black?
Run away, and don't look back, it's going to be nothing but trouble.
