My favourite retro homage lightweight so far.

Shame it's less powerful than the version form 50 years (almost) ago though... why do they do that?

The original 3 1/2 was a lovely wee bike. I was all set to get one for Mrs stinkwheel but she vetoed it because it was kick-start only.

The brand is historically Italian, but current models are assembled in China, blending Italian design with Chinese manufacturing. ..
will see how durable / reliable quality they are.

Depends which model, some of them were beautiful, other were... Well.. Odd. In a very 1980s sort of a way (I'm looking at you Dart 350).
