I say burn the Vespa and get a car, failing that get a lorry!

Definately call out a Locksmith and let the proffesional do the job.
Not that Im biased you understand, or touting for work

The correct answer by the way, was submitted by Yorkie.
Well done NED.

Don't the local herberts know the answer?

Ask a plumber first, but the local BRM (Bicycle Repair Mechanic) says the herberts walk around with portable angle grinders, which apparently defeat most D-locks except the really expensive ones, which, of course, he sells.

f*** you marvin, you dont know me. i bought a vespa to get to and from university, i cant afford to buy/run a car, so a nippy 125 is just the job.

Did I say buy a car? No! You decided to ride a girly vespa when you could have got a propper bike!

So f*** you mush, typical uni person can't read.

Firstly, what kind of useless hacksaw and or arms do you have that that method failed.
Secondly yes a jack will pop it open in most cases.
Thirdly you can open lots of those ones with the circular keys with the tube off a felt tip pen.

I suspect he's got it off by now. Or it's rusted off, IN THE 14 OR SO YEARS SINCE THE EVENT

Thanks for pointing out the time gap. I was surprised anyone still uses a D lock.

They stopped selling in late 2003, when it was openly revealed on the internet how easy they were to break open.

Messy way to do it

 

[wellquickwoody]

ok i had an unfortunate accident the other day which resulted in me losing my keys, on the bunch was my one and only 'D' lock key, the lock is now securing my vespa- which is great, only i now cant get it off, i tried a hack saw, which, surprisingly enough failed miserably. any ideas??

Angle grinder, if you are still trying.
