Any Vespa scooter shops in Doha?

Hello.

1) Are there any Vespa scooter shops in Doha? If so, does anyone have any idea how much a Vespa Granturismo 250cc costs there?

2) Also, any idea on roughly how much insurance will cost for this bike in Qatar?

3) Is it reasonable to expect your employer to transport a motorbike from your home country if you're an Expat?

Thx in advance!

but unfortunately the roads in Qatar are not.

Please, do your research. Road accidents are one of the highest causes of death in Qatar. Anyone riding a vespa in Doha would seriously be risking their life. I am not exaggerating. Please reconsider.

1) Alfardan motorcycles sells them, in their location at the petrol station before Landmark. Last time I checked they asked about 24.000QR for the GT250. (I might be wrong a few thousands though)

2) No idea - would be cool to know which insurer takes on Vespas. I guess if you buy a new Vespa with Alfardan, they take care of the paperwork

3) If transport is part of a work allowance - why not? Unfortunately the low mileage won't convince them here but it's worth a try...

You want to ride a Vespa in Doha? Do you have a death wish or something?

They're supposed to be the new Vespa dealer in Qatar.
