Lambretta revised the Li Series 3 for the third time in late 1965. Already more elegant and better designed than the earlier Li the Special range aimed to be more sporting and performance-based. The improved engine and close-ratio gearbox made for a faster machine with much-improved acceleration than earlier standard Li 125cc versions. The attractive angular lines and new metallic colours modernised the range. The 125 Special was not exported to the UK at the time and it is still relatively difficult to find one imported in excellent condition.

Here we present a very original 125cc Special in the desirable metallic blue. Completely standard and having had no modifications. The scooter was imported directly from a dealer in Italy and was supplied with its original purchase receipt Foggio Complimentare and Ministry of Transport booklet showing details of its early history up to 1988. The purchase date was February 1967 and the UK registration from LCGB states a manufacture of 1966. The body work is straight and good bar a repairable scrape on the right-side panel. The paint has a pleasant patina all over the panels and the running in transfer is fully visible. The seat is the original Blue Giuliari with original cover in remarkably good condition. All over the scooter we can see originality including; The control switch, speedometer, engine and panels. Our vendor has carefully specialised in collecting very original examples and we note that all of the outer cables, grease-points and cable straps have never been removed. Still standard on 6v points. Full original keys are present and the scooter is registered ready for the road. We were able to see the scooter running at the time of consignment although do advise a service before using. Also has an original '60s Cuppini rear spare wheel holder and rack in black, quite rare in itself. Learner legal and a well above average condition machine.
