Resolved Question: Hi can you help me with this translation? very important?

Hi I have to translate a document about Piaggio Vespa in english, this is what I did, can you see many errors? thank you so much! the foreign market, for Piaggio company has always had great value and found in England many consents, in fact, the Italian design and the practicality of the product conquest the British public. In England the licensed production of the Vespa began in 1951 with the motorcycle company Douglas, near Bristol. The English Vespa has been a strong success, even if it is not a cheap product as in Italy, because the economic conditions of England are a bit more favorable. The selling strategy on the British market is high class, a prestige product, which involves not only the youth but also the middle class and the wealthy class.

Vespa is also used in law enforcement: It is used with satisfaction by the local police in the cities of Cambridge and Liverpool. Soon Vespa Clubs opens, in fact in 1953 60 clubs can be counted with 3,000 members, which partecipates with enthusiasm to gatherings. Important figures for the British public opinion are pictured riding a Vespa, from the Duke of Edinburgh to the Formula 1 champion Stirling Moss.

The communication focuses on a medium-high target as it can be seen from this advertise that has as subjects a man and a woman riding a red Vespa. The scene is taken from behind, the foot of the driver touching the ground and the hand of the woman in a sign of greet makes the observer perceive that they are departing. The clothes of the couple is typical of the epoch as you can see from the hat of the man, the gloves and the coat of the woman. On the plate the model number is showed. The most famous models in Great Britain are the 125 and 150. Their faces express happiness and joy, clearly happy to have a Vespa. The background of the advertise is white, to make the observer notice more the subjects that are enhanced by strong cours. The orientation is horizontal and it is organized into two sections: on the left the couple on the scooter and on the right is positioned the text. A yellow arrow indicates the claim "choose Vespa and get the best". The product label is red as the product itself in the advertising. more
