In 1952 a group of Basque businessmen trading as Lambretta Locomociones SA obtained a licence to build Lambretta scooters in Spain. Production began two years later at a purpose built factory in Eibar. Sales were good and around 1964 the company began to use the name Serveta SA for its own commercial activities. In 1965 The Scooterlinea was presented to the public first in Barcelona then in Madrid. The slender and more aerodynamic body shape followed the Italian series 3 styling albeit some years after in timeline. Some argue that the Spanish built Lambrettas were of a superior quality.
Here we present a very original and straight example in full running condition. Still on 6V points and with its original ‘El Tigre’ seat which is in fabulous original condition. Some of the rubbers around the scooter have had to be renewed but only when absolutely necessary according to the vendor, and of course new tyres. The carburettor was ultrasonically cleaned and the engine is absolutely standard and unmodified with its original piston and barrel from new. The engine was however subject to a full de-coke and replacement gaskets and at the time of consignment it has to be said that the engine sounded very good. On further inspection the cables all appear to be original with correct oilers in place. The vendor told us that he had never opened the headset in his ownership because everything worked and he has never had to. The scooter is complimented by original Spanish accessories including front bumper and flat rear spare wheel holder. A very honest scooter in our opinion. Spanish 150 engines are quite sought after nowadays as the wider barrel mouth is suitable to directly accommodate many of the upgrade engine kits including Quattrini kits.
