Under the name NSU Prima, the NSU works in Neckarsulm, Germany built motor scooters that replaced the NSU Lambretta, which had been manufactured under an Innocenti license since 1950. The first version, the Prima D, came onto the market in 1956 and was offered for about a year alongside the Lambretta, whose production ended in 1956 after 117,043 units were sold. By the end of the production period in 1964, 160,645 NSU scooters had been manufactured under the name 'Prima'.

The NSU Prima was left to the current owner by their late father-in-law who recently passed away. The vendor was told about the NSU Prima many years ago and that he had it in parts in the loft. He said it was brand new and had never been registered as it was a leftover stock item when the business closed down and his father's motorcycle shop which was based in Ollerton, known locally as “Abdys”. It is not known when it was dismantled and placed into the loft, but every component was there, so it was able to be put back together. The engine is free and it has some storage marks on the paintwork. The overall condition is remarkable for its age and would make a great addition to a scooter collection. The NSU does not come with any documentation.
