In 1952 a group of Basque businessmen trading as Lambretta Locomociones SA obtained a licence to build Lambretta scooters in Spain. In 1964 the company began to use the name Serveta SA for its own commercial activities. Servetas were initially only produced for the Spanish domestic market. However by 1970 Spanish built machines were being sold in the UK by Lambretta Concessionaires alongside their Innocenti equivalents as Italian supply was known to be stopping. By the end of the decade Serveta scooters were being sold in the United States and the UK under their own name. Production finally ceased in 1989. The Jet 200 was produced from 1971 and allowed Lambretta owners to continue their love affair with a new Lambretta after the Italian factory closed in the same year. The Jet 200 utilised an SX200 engine using the same top-end configuration as the Italian version with a similar HP and a Spanish made Dellorto SH20 carburettor. The gearbox was identical to the Italian SX200 and performance was overall the same. A slight larger fuel tank gave a longer range however.They were known as a very well built engine as good if not better than the Italian counterpart for reliability. The body styling was based around the Italian Li ‘Scooterlinea’ but with SX style hexagonal head set. The biggest body change was the airbox being diverted as air flow through grills in the underseat tool box which was separated by a divider in the tool box door. The accessory leg shield box more than made up for the storage space.
