The Lambretta Li series 3 range replaced the extremely successful series 2 and with sleek lines and performance upgrades was also a huge success. This very presentable example in our opinion was restored we are told by an aeronautical engineer in his spare time 2 years ago.
We noted that the engine is a genuine SX200 engine and we are told is a standard specification. However we were also told by the vendor that the scooter is very quick. We noted that some care has been taken in the restoration and small details are considered such as the rivets on the side panel badges, correct floor runners and the panels all fit well. Many parts have been reused effectively including the badges. The engine sounded very good to us. The carburettor is correct SH20 for SX200 and the scooter has an Ancillotti big bore exhaust. The new speedometer is showing 3105 miles which we are told is all it has done since being restored. We noted that the headlight rim is original as are many features around the scooter. The forks have had auxiliary damper points welded on to the forks. Overall this is an attractive scooter with a great performance. With a genuine SX200 engine which has a high value in itself. Ready for immediate use on the road. Only for sale because of the health of the vendor.
