Highlights
- Restored by the vendor who has been rebuilding Lambrettas since 1985
- Has covered a mere 75 miles since restoration and still in need of running in
- Engine rebuilt and adapted to run on modern E10 petrol
The Appeal
If you were a Mod during the 1960s then a Lambretta Li150 Special would give you the ability to catch up with some of the Rockers! Equipped with a 175cc two stroke engine and a close ratio gearbox, this Lambretta boasted impressive performance not possessed by many scooters at the time.
This 1963 example has been fully rebuilt by the vendor who has restored Lambrettas for a number of years. It has since covered only 75 miles and is presented in excellent overall condition.
