• A scooter from a new ‘Shed and Buried’ TV episode screening this year
• TV presenter and producer Henry Cole's own scooter and in good working order
• V5C ready for use on UK roads

The Lambretta LD was a very popular model globally throughout the 1950s and in the UK had its ardent admirers even after the much-improved Li series was introduced. The Mk3 differed from previous versions of the LD with a handlebar-mounted casting that housed the horn and a fixed glovebox inside the leg shield that housed the speedometer and optional clock. It also had slightly larger and more comfortable saddles.

This example is destined to be seen by a national TV audience as the feature vehicle in an episode of ‘Shed and Buried’, the popular Discovery Channel programme, scheduled to be broadcast on TV this summer. As documented in the TV show, it was acquired as part of a deal with a car involving TV presenter Henry Cole and his team. The scooter looks to be in good order and retains many original parts including the original speedometer. As a standard LD150, we note that the chassis number is very late and that the engine number is extremely late making this one of the last LD engines ever built. A set of side panels are also included. A fully working scooter, it was ridden some distance by Henry Cole. We were able to see the scooter running and functioning very well at the time of consignment.
