Ape 50

Ape 50, originally uploaded by Jarod Carruthers.

Saw many of these in Italy. Handy way of getting around the tight busy streets. The engine in the Ape is mounted at the rear of the vehicle and comes in numerous forms throughout the World. In general the Ape uses either a 395 cc diesel engine (8bhp) whilst in parts of Europe the Ape is powered by a 422 cc diesel engine.
