SYNOPSIS BOOK: Lambretta
Lambretta Innocenti, the world's most
famous scooter marque, has a devoted following in Britain and
abroad. This book is by an enthusiast with the biggest collection of Lambrettas
and associated memorabilia in the world and the only
museum dedicated to the history of this internationally famous marque.
It gives the full history of the
Italian Lambretta Innocenti from 1947
to 1972 when production
ceased, and lists every model – including mopeds and three-wheelers – with
production figures, specification and a picture for each one.
Devoting equal enthusiasm to the
machines, advertising and collectables, the book is illustrated
throughout, wherever possible with pictures taken directly from contemporary
house magazines and promotional material to convey the
feel of the 1950s and 1960s, the golden age of motor scooters.
SYNOPSIS DVD: Scooter Experience
IN SEARCH OF LAMBRETTA
From the streets of the Isle of Wight
and Nigel Cox's fantastic collection of Scooters, from Italian Auto Jumbles to
Casa Lambretta itself, join us on a journey to explore the legend of Lambretta
in the country that gave birth to this classic piece of scooter history.
IN SEARCH OF VESPA
Take a magical trip in search of the
legend that is the Italian style icon, the Vespa scooter. Join us as we set off
for Italy in pursuit of the story of the transport legend. A must for
enthusiasts and the style conscious alike.
SCOOTER REVOLUTION
When it comes to two-wheeled
transport, few would have predicted at the outset that the Scooter would become
the epitome of cool, but that is precisely what has happened, decade by decade.
From the Swingin' Sixties, when Vespas and Lambrettas ruled the road, right
through to the Super Scooters of the 21st Century, these machines have become
veritable icons of fashion for each new generation. Whether your interest in
Scooters is nostalgic or contemporary this programme truly has something to
suit every taste. Enjoy a flavour of classic scootering from the past before
coming right up to date with such technological advances as the magnificent
Suzuki AN650 Bergman. So sit back, relax, and let this "Scooter
Revolution" take you on a fascinating journey of discovery.
