Test Drive a Vespa, Go See Transformers!

Postby Skowl » Wed Jun 13, 2007 5:52 pm

Site Jalopnik has announced that Vespa will be running a contest coinciding with the release of this summer's Transformers Movie.

If you head out to a Vespa Dealership and test drive a Vespa scooter between June 14th and June 24th, you'll get a free ticket to see Transformers in theatres and your name will be entered in a draw to one your very own Vespa scooter like the one seen in the movie! See the original announcement on Jalopnik here.

In other news, there will apparently be a Vespa scooter in the Transformers Movie...

Do you need a license to drive one of those things? If so, I'll have to pass, even if I did have the money to buy one (which i don't :sad: ).

Could you imagine a Vespa TF in the movie? The heroic Autobot Half-Pint!

On a side note, I hope I get some laughs for the thumbnail I put to this story in the News section, I think it's pretty à propos...

I'd think GM would get some stuff, too.

My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.

There's a dealer near me...I could do it.

I just don't know if I have the balls to walk up, hand them the slip and say I'm here to use this promotion. I can't even remotely afford your fine product, but I'll use you to get what I want.

...yeah...
