Although I’m rather cheesed off about my scooter, I’m reminded that things could always be worse, it could have been nicked, or this could have happened to it. At least that lovely S°1 (as they write it in Italy) got a proper Viking send off.
I posted about Lambretta Evolution’s Scomadi auto conversion a while ago, fantastic scooters… but not the only game in town. When you start talking about auto Lambretta a couple of other names keep coming up… one is Dave Briggs (maybe feature his work later), and another is that of Sean Walker, of Fattspeed fame. More of a creator of one off masterpieces than a range of next generation Lambretta’s Shauns work is simply stunning… some of the nicest Lambretta’s I’ve ever seen, bar none.
Don’t know if you caught Rock and Chips (a prequel to Only Fools and Horses) by the late, great John Sullivan. To be honest, I think it’s a bit hit and miss, comedy wise. The star of the show is supposed to be James Buckley as a young Del Boy, but for my money it’s his lovely Series 1 Lambretta.
Welsh songstress Duffy gets a bit of glamour into her video… a rather nice Series 1 at 56 seconds in!
