Synopsis

Book by Moore Peter

Quatri�me de couverture

He was an intrepid Australian travel writer fast approaching 40. She was a fading Italian beauty from the '60s. They met on the Internet and together would spend one unforgettable summer travelling highways and byways from Milan to Rome. Only one thing stood in the way of perfect love...

Sophia was a motor scooter.

It was the late night Tai Bo fitness commercial warning him that life comes to an end after 40 that prompted Peter Moore to chase a boyhood dream. To go to Italy and seek out its celebrated dolce vita from the back of a Vespa.

But it couldn't be just any old Vespa. Peter wanted a bike as old as he was and in the same sort of condition: a little rough round the edges, a bit slow in the mornings perhaps, but basically still OK. And it had to have saddle seats. And temperamental electrics. And a little too much chrome. The sort of scooter you'd imagine a sharp-suited, Ray Ban-wearing young Marcello Mastroianni riding.

From picnicking in the Italian Alps and rattling through cobbled hilltop towns to gate-crashing Frances Mayes's villa and re-enacting 'Roman Holiday', Vroom with a View is as much a romance as a travel adventure.
