After 6 years working in a very small garage at my private residence I finally decided to take the big step and I have now rented a shop at 819a Nepean Hwy, Brighton-Bentleigh so that I can enjoy more space and offer a better service to all my clients. Here are some internal pictures of the new shop.

Well....the shop has been up and running for 4 months now but, after all the energy and money spent in pursuing my lifetime dream, it looks like I will have to move out and find new premises to operate from. Here is, in a few words, what happened just recently. I was sharing the rent and floor space with another bike shop owner and, under this agreement, I was able to run my business. Suddenly the other person pulled out of his part of the deal, thus leaving me to pay the whole amount of the lease. Needless to say, although I am sure I can sustain such a commitment on my own, I am not prepared to undergo so much  stress and uncertainty  so, from the 1st of October, I will have to vacate the shop. At the moment it appears that I may have found another place further south, in Moorabbin, but the new premises do not have a shop window. I apologise for any inconvenience I will cause to my customers but The Vespa Wizard will be still looking after your scooters, no matter what happens.  Stop the press...............Today (24th September) with the kind help of a group the Vespa Club Melbourne members, I have finished transferring my workshop to the new premises at the following address:                 29B Genoa Street, Moorabbin (enter from Marrbridge Rd) Victoria 3189 AUSTRALIA    I hope I will be operational again by the 1st of October  and I would like to thank everyone for their support during these difficult times.
