My version FWIW...

Good vacations with a Cardellino

Docile and exciting, a famous Moto Guzzi lightweight will be a precious benefit for your vacations, and with one you’ll have more complete enjoyment.

Ask for a demonstration and about special offers at the dealer in your city


Quite difficult to translate and convey the meaning.  Literal doesn’t quite work.

I once ran into two girls on a scooter who had ridden from Florence to Corsica on vacation, including the ferry.  Apparently the concept lived on.  I helped them fix some sort of minor roadside problem, they gave me their phone number but I was too busy to call them later on. This was 2005 and I think 15 years ago I must’ve been a fool!

Much better translation, and a very sad story indeed!

LOL. That needs to be true ... as last summer 2 motorbikers (men) asked: Is that your father's bike?
