Lot details

Registration No: Unregistered
Frame No: Not visible
MOT: Exempt

  • Extremely original and believed complete
  • Discovered during a house clearance
  • Tax disc suggests last road use in 1963

The 125cc Lambretta LD Mk1 was introduced in 1951 as a successor to the LC. It featured covered panels over a tubular frame and had the addition of a torsion bar. This feature remained on all Lambrettas until 1958. The LD also had springs enclosed in the front forks whilst the Mk2 incorporated a number of improvements. The rear brake was now cable controlled and the gears used a single teleflex cable. There was also a small luggage box which housed the optional speedometer. The whole ride experience was much improved and the LD was subsequently a very popular model. This example has recently been discovered in a house clearance stored in a dry garage and therefore represents a viable restoration or conservation project. The chassis number could not be seen but only because the left hand side panel could not be removed at the time of consignment. There are no documents but the presence of a tax disc may enable the registration number which is not on the DVLA system to be regained.
