This 1957 Lambretta LD150 is a well-presented example of Italy’s iconic mid-century scooter, finished in period-correct paint and retaining a largely original appearance. Powered by a 150cc two-stroke engine with a three-speed manual gearbox, the LD150 combines vintage charm with reliable, low-capacity motoring. The LD150 was Lambretta’s top-tier model in the 1950s, featuring enclosed bodywork, wide floorboards, a comfortable dual seat, and a more refined ride than its rivals. Built as reliable, stylish transport in the post-war era, it has become an icon of vintage scooter culture and remains a favourite for collectors of Italian two-wheelers. This example was restored and resprayed in the early 2000s, and it still presents in very good condition today.

The current owner has had the scooter for approximately three years, though earlier ownership history is unknown. It was purchased as part of a private collection and not actively ridden, hence it has not been serviced during current ownership. The previous owner advised it had just been serviced prior to purchase. Mechanically, the scooter runs well and has no known faults.

It remains in factory-standard condition, with no modifications, aftermarket parts, or non-original features fitted. The motor, drivetrain, and exhaust system are all as originally specified. Cosmetically, the LD150 presents with a great patina and original character. The bodywork is approximately 95% excellent, with only minor flaws noted: stone chips on the front mudguard and running boards, and light corrosion on the original leg shield trim.

The paint from the earlier restoration still shows with strong depth and colour. The seat and grips appear in clean condition with no major wear or cracking. This Lambretta LD150 will be supplied with some generic literature, but no original tool roll or servicing documentation is available. It represents a great opportunity to secure a charming, well-kept vintage scooter — ideal for display, collecting, or light summer cruising.
