The GP200 was the last of the great Lambretta scooters that rolled off of Innocenti’s production line in Milan. Produced from January 1969 until April 1971 it is said a total of only 9350 DL/GP200’s were made. The GP200 followed the SX200 and retained the engine prefix of SX200 before the serial number. The iconic bodywork followed the trends of the day of the early 1970’s. The Bertone design was more streamlined than its predecessors with a new 22/2 frame and rectangular headlight. There were however significant improvements to the engine over the SX including: improved crankshaft, a complete overhaul of the gearbox ratios and improved Ducati ignition. The electronic version went even further with a 6v electronic ignition and CDI unit and these today are extremely collectible.

This GP200 Electronic was registered new on the 2nd of August 1971. Our vendor purchased it in March 2023 and a comprehensive restoration was carried out by renowned and in-demand KTF Scooters of Southport (formerly MS Classics) to a fastidiously high standard. Specific attention has been made to re-create the experience of buying this scooter brand new in a Lambretta showroom back in 1971.

Correct to the last detail the scooter retains many of its original parts from assembly in Italy, including all bodywork, sharks teeth, speedometer, handlebars, Stand, forks and fork links, panel clips, fuel cap, rear hub, front disc brake, locks and light switch, headlamp, brake pedal, black toolbox and all ancillary parts under the side panels all are original to this scooter from new. 'This scooter is as all-Italian as you are going to find' according to the vendor. We are informed that the scooter still retains the actual original number plate issued to the scooter in 1971.

The engine retains all its original major components other than those perishable parts requiring to be changed for safety and reliability. It has the original cylinder still on the first size GOL piston, original cylinder head, gearbox, sprocket, primary drive, clutch bell and basket, mag housing, 6v UK specification stator plate and ignition system. Parts replaced and supplied by Rimini Lambretta include the GP200 crank, Gol piston, clutch plates and metals, bearings and oil seals, drive chain, Innocenti standard GP200 exhaust and all gaskets, Cdi and regulator and correct protection rubber boots. If you had walked into any Lambretta dealership back in 1971, this is what a White GP200 Electronic would have looked like in the showroom.
