Raleigh, more famous for manufacturing bicycles, introduced their first moped in 1950s with an engine designed by Vincento Piatti—the designer of Mini-Motor. The company became part of the Tube Investments and brought the Raleigh, Norman, Phillips and Hercules brands of moped under the same ownership. The obvious course of action was to rationalise these four ranges into one common series and it was decided to license the Mobylette range of mopeds produced by Motobécane in France. A stopgap based on the Sachs-engined Nippy already being produced by Norman was sold in Ireland until the Mobylette-based models were in production. From then on, Raleigh, Phillips and Norman mopeds were effectively re-badged Mobylettes, while Raleigh first applied the 'Runabout' name to the RM6, which was built in various versions from May 1963 until February 1971 when production ceased.

This Raleigh Runabout is in its original condition. Since sold in 1968, this runabout has not been used much at all. We have been advised it was running earlier this year, with no issues. It comes complete with a current V5C.
