Actually, what is incorrectly called tuktuk in this post, it's commonly called APE (BEE) in Italy. The factory making those vehicles is PIAGGIO- part of FIAT. And in Turin and little villages is a very typical kind of transport for who runs a little business ... For your information, competitions of any kind and sort, with this funny 3wheelers take regularly place, in every part of Italy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21629351372307923.post-19469888244295262382009-11-14T14:00:55.737+01:002009-11-14T14:00:55.737+01:00@ Peter
