Vespas are way cheaper than Lambrettas, and I've known some go for as little as £400.

Having said that you won't be able to ride anything legally till you're 16 and I believe you are restricted to 50 cc even then (somebody correct me please if I'm wrong)

Also, the "cheap" Vespas are the newer ones- if you're looking for a GS160 or an SS180 then expect to pay big bucks.

There are a number of Vespa lovers in the club who could probably advise you better than me

best
