The ‘150 Special’ debuted at Milan in 1963. The tuned engine and close-ratio gearbox made for a faster – 95kmh – machine with much-improved acceleration over a standard Li. The Special 150cc engine/gearing combination on these models was also particularly sought after by Lambretta racers who raided the machine engines and this has contributed to the rarity of them in original state.
Here we present an original paint, unmolested genuine Italian 150 Special. Imported in 2022 it has a NOVA on file for simple UK registration. We have seen this scooter running although, it will need mechanical recommissioning. It has a larger SHI/20 carburettor. With its original saddles with original accessory seat covers and original hand grips, this is an attractive scooter to our eyes. The scooter is extremely straight with no holes and the all-over patina is only surface and it must be said, it is an effect many try to forcefully achieve without success. This is genuine.
