Interesting little book on eBay, going by the name of The Second Book of the Lambretta – LI and TV models by RH Warring. Very few details on the site, as it seems to be a charity selling it rather than a scooter enthusiast. But you can probably gather than […]

Limited edition Lambretta helmets
Apparently, this is the official limited edition Lambretta helmet range, offered by Heritage Helmets and produced in Italy with Project SRI. All are 'eco' leather-lined, open-faced helmets, with four designs specifically designed to compliment classic Lambrettas. The 'Bianco' and 'Nero' models both feature the number '47' within a target design […]
Scootermania documentary online
Big thanks to Spectre on the forums for spotting this Scootermania documentary online. It was originally broadcast back in the early 1990s on Channel 4, essentially a potted history of the Vespa and Lambretta, from inception through to their 60s heyday and decline (in the mass market at least).

We Are The Mods promo film
I don't know anything about this, except it was posted up on the forums, it was made by someone called Live Forever Productions and it's a short film about the mod scene called, rather originally, We Are The Mods, possibly a taster of something longer or still in production. Can't […]
