1962 LAMBRETTA TV 175 SERIES III : stock# L29Mechanically A1, looks great, runs great, no issues, no problems. Overall condition is excellent as the photos will attest. An exceptional example of one of the coolest scooters ever, you will not be disappointed with any aspect of this fine classic.This is the perfect Scoot for a Lambretta enthusiast. Rare, fast, and beautiful. . . really, everything a vintage scooter should be.  Very collectable and still exciting fun to ride ... an investment in sheer joy, to be sure.Also ideal for a promotional wrap - as the large flat side panels would look great with graphics.The TV175 Lambretta was the top of the line sport scooter for 1962 as the Series III offered progressive styling and outstanding handling and power.The TV 175 was also the performance leader of its day. It was, and still is, very quick. At the time this scooter came out, it was the hottest scooter on the market. Innocenti and Piaggio were competing fiercely in Europe, and the TV 175 was meant to be the top of the market. It certainly had it all. The new "Slimstyle" bodywork for the Series III Lambrettas was certainly a departure from the more svelte lines of the earlier models. The motor inside the slimstyle body was as sporty and powerful as the scooter looked on the outside. The TV 175 had one other trick up its sleeve - it was the first production motorcycle or scooter with a disc brake as standard equipment. Housed internally in the front hub, the TV had a mechanical disc brake using a solid disc. The only visible clue was the four air vents that were meant to channel cooling air to the disc. This one is an early version, with the same sleek side panels as the Li range Lambrettas.  The TV was expensive new, and are difficult to find today in any condition. This one is in excellent shape. While not concours ready, the paint looks great, everything is there and original. The engineering on these Lambrettas is very refined and perfected, as they were the evolution of a solid basic design over many years of detail improvements. This is a robust vintage scooter that can stand up to regular daily use. These very rarely come up for sale, and we were certainly pleased to offer such a nice scooter.She's a sharp looker and a nice runner, and is ready for her next owner.Shipping available to any US location $495.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ABOUT BELLO MOTO -- Scooters Are Our PassionBELLO MOTO is dedicated to classic scooters from Vespa, Lambretta and unique European brands.
