The Model A is quite a rare beast these days, and they command high prices in Italy. Parts supply, restoration, and information stems mainly from two Italian specialists. Due to this We say Leave this one to the experts / collectors
We stock a very small selection of parts for the model A, which can be found by clicking here
Model B
The model B gear change was now on the handle bars, a feature to stay with the rest of the Lambretta models ever made.

The Model B like the A is quite rare beast although a little easier to find then an A. Same as the A, parts supply could be a problem, the B model was basically an upgraded A, and again We say Leave this one to the experts / collectors
We stock a very small selection of parts for the B models, which can be found by clicking here
Model C
Starting with the C, the basis of all Lambretta frames would be made of tube.

The C Model starts to become a viable machine to own and use, although they are still very fragile. Parts supply is quite a but better then the earlier machines. 125cc engine doesnt perform that well, 40 to 45mph We say Still a collectors machine really, many engine parts left over from the A/B models. Model D is a better option if you want to ride it!

Model LC
The LC was the first Lambretta to feature full sized legshields and side panels. On this and the LD, the L stood for Luxury due to the mentioned panel work.

The D/LD is the last of the shaft driven models, and was very well made, over engineered in fact. Parts supply is good for trims, badge and resotration parts, not so good for engine parts or bodywork, having said that engines are normally good for 30,000 to 50,000 miles. We say If you want one of the early shaft driven Lambrettas the Mark three D/LD 150cc is the one to go for

Model LD
The LD like the Model D can be quite confusing to identify as three different versions were available. Of these three versions the Mark 2 and 3 could also be brought as the LDA, which was an electric start version. Finally the LD also had another version from the French Troyes factory.

The French LD can be distigished by the position of the fuel and choke levers. These exsit the frame near the feet instead of between the seats on the Italian made models. Also seat covers were rubber, and small changes to badges were made. The French made Ld was largely always based on the Mk2 version.

The D/LD is the last of the shaft driven models, and was very well made, over engineered in fact. Parts supply is good for trims, badge and restoration parts, quite a lot of body work is being remade, but supply not so good for engine parts, having said that engines are normally good for 30,000 to 50,000 miles. We say If you want one of the early shaft driven Lambrettas the Mark three D/LD 150cc is the one to go for.

Most E models were converted to F specification as the pull starts are so delicate, they broke easily, even when new. Parts supply is hard with most items needing to be sourced via Italy, although some parts are interchangeable with the Model D. We Say For collectors only.

TV1 are amongst the most regarded Lambrettas you can get, but can be more difficult and expensive for parts. The series one Li, is the first of the Lambrettas that can be easily modified for both performance, style, accessories or what ever takes your fancy. Parts supply is excellent We Say TV1 for collectors only, Li Series one, great classic looks, and little larger and heavier then the later models, but easy to ride, and repair.

Series Two
The Series two was pretty much identical to the Series ones except the head lamp was now in a larger head set housing. This turned as you turned the steering, unlike the S1 which faced forwards which ever way the handle bars were.

The specials have the looks of the more expensive TV, and later SX models, were available in 125 and 150 and had a good long production run meaning you can still find them. Parts supply is excellent We Say Has that Sixties style, and looks of the more desirable models, but with prices that are more realistic.

TV200 models are one of the most desirable to own, The 175 in standard engine guise was possible the smoothest Innocenti ever made. Parts supply is excellent We Say TV200 prices are astronomical, better to buy a different model and spend the vast difference on making the scooter fast and reliable. TV175 models are well worth a look if you want standard engine performance and the looks.

SX models were the last of the Sixties styled machines with the chrome and polished trims / badges as standard, plus benefitted from all the updates Innocenti made over the years. Parts supply is excellent We Say SX200 prices are high, SX150 dont seem to come up for sale that often!

Futuristic styling, still copied today, and doesnt look out of place. The most modified Lambretta in terms of performance and customisation you cab get. Parts supply is excellent, We Say Check GP200 machines are real, the difference in frame identities is one number, but the value is massive. Buy a 125 (or 150) model, and spend the massive saving on performance that will run rings around a standard 200 any way! The same can be said for Italian / Indian, Italian machines command a high premium compared to Indian. Forget stories of poor Indian quality, as most Italian machines will have Indian parts fitted some where now! Take each machine on its individual basis, as well looked after Indian machines could be a better value buy then a bodged Italian machine.

J range
The J range was the baby of the Lambretta models, and was primarily designed for ladies, being lightweight and using smaller stretch levers. One piece monocoque frame work went away from the more traditional tubular frame.

Always have the stigma of being the baby models of the range, and not so desirable. Parts supply is getting better, but not as good as the larger framed models We Say bit of an odd ball model, prices will always remain lower then other models / be careful when restoring these models due to the values.

Lui, Vega & Cometa
As the race to be the first person on the moon gathered pace, the new model was launched, the Luna range (Luna meaning silver moon). The machines looked very advanced for their day, reverting back to the open frame style of the much admired A/B/C/D types

Small lightweight and futuristic models, aimed at the commuter market, but never really took off. Parts supply is getting better, but not as good as the larger framed models We Say bit of an odd ball / collectors model, great fun but not easily customisable, tuneable, or other.

Moped
Lambretta also made quite a range of 38 and 50cc step through models.
Facts
These were the smallest engine Lambretta produced, and in a strong wind it would need pedal power to keep it moving! Many plastic parts were used on later models, including engine covers, headlight, and petrol tank
Two speed, fully automatic, this model even featured a lever which reduced exhuast compression by moving the exhaust valve, for ease of starting. Chain driven, but not enclosed as per usual, encased by a chain guard, spoked wheels with trailing links were other features of the Lambrettiono as the model was known.

Only a handful of these models probably exist in the UK, brought in by private collectors We Say Collectors only, you can run faster then these mopeds.
We do not stock any moped parts.
Lambro
Innocenti always produced a three wheeled commercial vehicle along side their two wheeled scooters. The amount of models and options was vast.
Lambro three wheelers
There were so many Lambro models made, they would need their own pages to cover them all. Parts supply has over the last very few years become OK via specialist suppliers.

The work horse of Italy used to be a pretty rare sight here in the UK, but more and more have been imported over the years. We Say The most fun you can have on three wheels, the only down side is lack of top speed and getting stuck in traffic!
