• Still on 6v points and largely original parts re-used in restoration

• Standard SX200 presented in excellent condition

• One owner last 23 years

Many regard the SX200 to be the finest scooter Innocenti produced, and possibly regarded as the best scooter ever made. This late production example was restored at the time of import by JD Classics of Gillingham, Kent circa year 2000. Our vendor tells us that in this time it has only travelled 400 miles and this can match with the mileage recorded on the speedometer. With correct late production features including rectangular badge, SH1/20 carburettor and grey plastic toolbox, the scooter appears to be presented in excellent condition.

At the time of restoration the vendor changed the wheels to chrome versions although the original set of 3 White Innocenti wheel rims are supplied with the lot. The scooter started easily and appeared to be working well at time of consignment although we would recommend a basic service due to the fact the scooter has seldom been used. All keys are present with the tools and tool roll. The sale is due to poor health and the owner’s helmets are also included along with an SX200 instruction book. V5C for use on UK roads currently on SORN.

The New York Police Department, the largest force in the world, had been using scooters for patrol duties in various ways since 1964. In 1971 the NYPD wanted more Lambrettas and re-approached Innocenti who by then were in the ownership of BMC who had closed down the scooter side of the business. The inquiry was directed to the Spanish factory of Eibar who were making Lambrettas under license. A 1972 article in the NYPD inhouse magazine ‘Spring 3100’ discusses these first Spanish Lambrettas and how happy they were with them.

This genuine 1971 Eibar NYPD Lambretta number 195, one of the first version Spanish Lambrettas and the rarest with only 2 known to survive from this era. It was professionally restored by Eric Lussier of 2nd Avenue Scooters and was treated to a full 100 point restoration. The lot comes with a very impressive amount of memorabilia including a full NYPD ‘scooter cop’ uniform with equipment.
