The Lambretta Li Series 1 was properly launched in April 1958. Some 7 months after the TV175 Series 1 was launched. By then, Innocenti had eliminated most of the engine problems that the 175 had. The Li 150 was a dramatic departure from the shaft-driven LD range that had preceded it. The new enclosed chain-driven engine was centrally positioned under the frame and had more power than the LD. With larger 10-inch wheels and beautifully designed panel work it was a superb scooter to ride and was an instant hit. The Lambretta Li150 Series 2 was launched in October 1959. Based on the successful Series 1 with the obvious difference was the position of the headlight on the handlebars for better lighting when cornering.
This Lambretta was purchased by the vendor to restore in 2019. Due to the wonderful patina of the machine, it was decided to leave it ‘as is’. It has not been run for a couple of years and will need recommissioning. It comes complete with a current V5C and some paperwork from the Netherlands.
