ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The most powerful in the V-Special range is this V200 featuring a 169cc 4-stroke single cylinder engine producing 12hp. Complete simplicity and ease of use is facilitated by air-cooling, electronic fuel injection and CVT ‘twist and go’, this Lambretta is a lot of fun!

WHEELS, SUSPENSION, TYRES & BRAKES
The stylish multi-spoke wheels are immaculate and the factory fitted tyres still have coloured markings soon lost upon regular use. The Bosch CBS (Combi Brake System) features 220mm discs front and rear and all braking components are spotless.

HISTORY FILE
Registered new on the 13th September 2024, the supplying dealership was Choice Motorcycles in Coventry. The one and only keeper, Mr Cooney, purchased this V 200 Special to sit alongside his 1959 Lambretta and classic Volkswagen Camper. Having decided to purchase our Toyota MR2, both his Lambretta’s were offered in part exchange. There are three Lambretta red keys and the original red presentation box contains the spare keys, keyring, handbook and service book. With just 297 miles, this example is essentially as new in every respect apart from the price!

This 1962 Lambretta Li 150 is an early Series III in the ‘Slim Style’ design that was introduced in the same year, a design that would become Lambretta’s most successful. A documented restoration costing almost £10,000 is abundantly clear in every aspect of this stunning Italian icon. The finish is truly first class from the frame to all panels, castings and leg shields. The paintwork is near perfect throughout and all bodywork is free from damage. The round Carello headlamp with bright chrome bezel is immaculate as are all handles, switches and beautiful ornate badges.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
Remove the stylishly sleek side panels, which are in pristine condition, to reveal the correct 148cc motor with engine number stamping clearly visible. A full engine rebuild has been carried out to include meticulous cosmetic restoration of the engine casings and ancillaries. Side panel removal also allows full inspection of the pristine frame with clearly visible frame stamp. The 150LI3 engine produces 6.5hp at 5300rpm with a claimed top speed of 55mph. Upgrades include a conversion to 12V key operated ignition and lighting circuit with incorporation of an electronic Ducati system. The engine kicks into life effortlessly and the bike rides and progresses through the 4-speed transmission superbly, although the bike will require running-in.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
Colour coded 2.10×10 rims front and rear are spotless and shod in new Michelin S83 3.50×10 tyres including the spare which have covered less than a mile! 150mm internal width aluminium finned-drum brakes have been fully rebuilt and operate well with the offside hand lever and rear foot brake.

HISTORY FILE
This wonderful Lambretta Li 150 was manufactured in 1962 by Innocenti in their Milan factory. The original Carta Di Circolazione (Registration Card) dated the 10th September 1962 confirms this as a genuine Li 150 with frame number matching that on the bike today. A Foglio Complementare (Complementary Sheet) dated 14th September 1962 shows first registration to a Franco Gianotti in Genova. Furthermore, there is a Dating Certificate from the British Lambretta Owners Association, the go to organisation for anything Lambretta related in the UK, confirming this bike as a Innocenti built Li 150 Series III from 1962 with frame and engine number matching that of the early documents as well as the identity numbers on the bike itself. Brought to the UK direct from Italy in 2015, the bike is now fully restored and importantly, UK registered. The UK owner who undertook the restoration, Mr Jones, described the project as a ‘labour of love’, in a personal letter and that the inspiration for this came from the fact he purchased a brand new black and white Li 150 in 1963 when he was 18 years old! Embarking on the project during the Covid lockdown and fulfilling his dream, Mr Jones was sadly never able to enjoy the fruits of his labour due to illness and on his passing the family made the difficult decision to sell the bike. The documented restoration is vastly comprehensive and although fully operational the bike will require running-in. Everything from a full strip down and removal of the engine to the frame and body components being stripped and sandblasted before preparation for undercoating and final painting in the colour scheme of his original bike at a professional body shop. The engine was stripped, cleaned and rebuilt following de-carbonising with a new clutch and springs, and new GP crank, bearings and seals. The rebuilt really was a no expense spared affair with new exhaust system, suspension and brakes as well as all new screws, nuts, bolts, clips, washers, rubber, bearings and wiring loom. The huge history file holds all invoices for parts. A tremendous example in every respect.
