Invidia Scooters Limited was established in 2007.
Initially importing from various suppliers, in 2008 we established our own workshop so quality and workmanship could be monitored. We employed skilled staff in India and a UK Director visits at least 6 times a year to ensure that the build quality remained at a high standard.
In the past we tried to take bespoke orders from customers and we built an exact bike to suit the customers order, BUT, we found that the customs process and shipping times to be too erratic and unpredictable, so no reliable delivery date could ever be secured. This caused a great deal of concern to customers who invariably demanded their money back. We were then left with scooters that were so 'personalised' it was very difficult for us to sell them on. Therefore, now we will only advertise scooters that are actually in the UK sat in stock. That way we make no false promises about when your scooter will arrive.
We build high quality "Lambretta" GP's and Li's in a variety of engine sizes and colours. These scooters start life as Super Vijay 150's - built in India by SIL since 1972. We are now also building and importing Vespa VBB Scooters.
We are a UK based company so you receive UK based consumer law protection something you do not get should you chose to buy from India directly.
Buying from India direct can be a daunting and risky process, as the supplier builds you the' one scooter' then washes his hands of you. They know that you will not fly to India to sort out any problems, so they will just build your scooter to any old standard knowing there is no come back, leaving you to sort the scooter out yourself. And then there is the supplier in India who takes your money and you never get your scooter!!!
One of the UK Based Directors is a qualified and experienced engineer, so his visits to India are spent chiefly enhancing the engineering quality of the scooters, so that each and every shipment to the UK gets progressively better and better!!
