The Appeal

Often referred to as the ‘GT’ 200, this scooter is regarded as one of the greatest of all time. The TV 200 was produced to meet the demand of British enthusiasts, who sought a slightly more performance-oriented model. As a result, this is one of the few Lambretta scooters more commonly known in Britain as opposed to its homeland of Italy. The TV 200 featured disc front brakes, and a higher top gear for cruising on the British roads, amongst many subtle body changes. 
Today, these scooters are seldom seen on UK roads, with tidy examples often being the most sought after from the Lambretta lineup. This beautiful 1966 model is a rather interesting one, as it is no doubt one of the very last TV 200’s to be produced. If you’re looking for a fantastic little Lambretta to tootle about on or preserve as a collection piece, this is the scooter for you. 

The History and Paperwork

  • First registered in the UK in 1997
  • Just 1 former UK keeper
  • Garage kept and well cared for
  • Previous full engine rebuild
  • Well maintained example
  • V5C document present
  • Invoices for engine rebuild and maintenance
First registered here in the UK in 1997, this TV 200 shows just 1 former keeper on the V5C and now shows a total of 38,480 miles on the clock. The first keeper was of course a local scooter specialist, responsible for preparing the vehicle for sale to the current keeper. Although currently difficult to support prior to its time in the UK, this mileage is believed to be genuine, with the overall condition certainly suggesting the same.
The current keeper acquired the vehicle just one month later and has since treasured the scooter, with no expense spared. Throughout their ownership, this Lambretta has been treated with a full engine rebuild courtesy of AF Rayspeed Lambretta specialists in 2016, upgraded components, and regular maintenance. Invoices for the engine rebuild and new parts can be found within the included paperwork. 
As an avid Lambretta enthusiast, the current owner will sorely miss the scooter, which has been a truly dependable companion throughout their 25 years of ownership. It is only due to lack of use that this beautiful TV 200 now awaits a new home, where it will no doubt be enjoyed for many more years to come.

The Exterior

  • White & Blue two-tone exterior
  • Great condition
  • Iconic 60’s Lambretta styling
  • Well cared for example
The TV 200 truly is a beautiful scooter, balancing modern styling tweaks with quintessential Italian character. This particular example does the name proud, and presents itself incredibly well for its age today.
The off-white and blue exterior shows just a few minor chips and marks, in keeping with the sheer age of the vehicle. Fortunately, due to the flat paintwork used with these scooters, the vast majority of pictured defects would benefit from a simple touchup and dash of TLC in places.
The rest of the exterior follows suit, with only minimal wear to be found with grips, the spare wheel cover and various aged brightwork dotted throughout. Both wheels are in great condition for their age too, with plenty of tread left for the lucky new owner to enjoy. 

Overall, this Lambretta is in excellent condition with only a few age related marks as you would perhaps come to expect. Minor touch-ups here and there and spots of TLC to counteract the signs of age will no doubt leave this stunning scooter in an even more impressive state. 

The Mechanics

  • Rebuilt 2-stroke engine
  • Clubman exhaust
  • Electronic ignition
  • SIL flywheel
  • SIL GP gearbox
  • Cable pull disc front brake
  • Jetex carburetor 
  • Serviced regularly
  • Performs fantastically
Buyers will be pleased to know that this 198cc TV 200 performs absolutely fantastically, and is a joy to ride. The scooter benefits from numerous instances of key maintenance, including a rebuilt engine courtesy of AF Rayspeed Lambretta specialists in 2016. In fact, the scooter has only just passed the recommended “running in” mileage, with no faults to report. 

The scooter also features a clubman exhaust, electronic ignition, SIL GP gearbox, SIL flywheel to aid tickover, front disc brake, and a replacement Jetex carburetor. Both the original Dellorto carb and Innocenti gearbox can be made available with the vehicle if desired, but will require attention to return to full working order. 
As this TV 200 performs without a single known mechanical or electronic fault, the scooter presents a perfect opportunity to experience some of Lambretta’s finest work, without the need to worry about reliability. 

Summary

This Lambretta TV 200 is a fantastic example of the iconic scooter we all love, now looking great for its age, and boasting a superb maintenance record. 

With years of caring ownership under its belt, this scooter is more than ready to be enjoyed once more out on the open road, where it will continue to provide many enjoyable experiences for years to come.

Come funzionano le offerte massime

Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.

Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.

Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.

Incrementi di offerta automatica

  • Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
  • Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
    • Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
    • Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Ammontare dell'offerta Incremento
Da £0 a £9,999 £100.00
Da £10,000 a £49,999 £250.00
Da £50,000 a £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Superamento immediato dell'offerta

Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.

Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.

Offerte massime di pari ammontare

Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.

Pre-autorizzazione

Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.

Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?

Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.

Problema con l'offerta

Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
