I have a TS400, and know a guy with a Vespa 400, but we've not (yet) done a drag race with them. The Vespa only has a 3-speed transmission, which might limit it a little, but he takes his family on drives all the time with his. My Goggo has some engine problems (being rebuilt now), so I haven't had it over about 85 kph. I hope it'll hit 100 kph when it's back on the road.

You mean the performance of the two? I don't know, I never drove a Vespa. The Goggo 400 has, compared to the smaller versions, a lot more power!
The Vespa 400 was built only in France (never in Italy) because of the Fiat Nouva 500 being introduced on the market in the same year.

Nice little car. My old man had one, I would have taken it of his hands if he hadn't sold it before I was born!
Does any one know how a Goggo TS400compares with a Vespa 400?

@LWall2000 not really – the name's got nothing to do with the english "to go" ;-)

I read somewhere that back when these were first made there was a loophole in the German licensing laws that allowed people with a motorcycle license to drive any vehicle with less than 500cc's and that's why this car was built, to exploit the loophole because a motorcycle license was easier and cheaper to get than an automobile license so a lot more people were likely to buy this than a full sized car.

That's right. Back in the early fifties, we had a driver's license for motorcycles called "Klasse 4" that allowed to drive "vehicles up to 250 cc", not defining the number of wheels the vehicle might have. A lot of people prefered getting that license instead of the "real" one, the "Klasse 3", because they didn't have to do a practical driving test. In fact, Goggos and other 250 cc cars were later on despised for years as being made for "those who can't drive"!
