The Evolution of the Lambretta 200 by Stuart Owen Pdf
In the early 1960s Innocenti introduced the series three Slimstyle Lambretta with its stunning looks, and innovative engineering making it a world leader.

The motorway age had dawned meaning vehicles with greater power and speed were now in vogue but could this include the Lambretta. Despite a reluctance to join the race Innocenti finally gave in when in 1963 they produced the TV 200 the most powerful Lambretta to date. Throughout the rest of the decade, the 200cc Lambretta continued to evolve through the SX and GP models creating an ever-lasting legacy. For the first time all three models the TV 200, SX 200, and GP 200 are thoroughly examined and compared against each other Contents included : The full history of each model : Technical analysis : Transition and crossover details : Performance comparison

The History of the Lambretta Series One by Stuart Owen Pdf
The LD had been a huge success for Innocenti but to progress further with the Lambretta it needed to be radically developed. That happened with the introduction of three new models the first of which was the TV 175 launched in 1957, quickly followed by the Li 125 and li150. They were completely different from any previous Lambretta designs and in the TV 175 the most powerful machine the company had ever built. The new shape and design were an instant hit as they sold in their tens of thousands and made the Lambretta the number one choice when it came to motor scooters. With its bigger wheel size, lower centre of gravity, and four-speed engine it was a design masterclass. There is no doubt all three models paved the way for future domination by Innocenti and their importance in the Lambretta story should never be forgotten.
The History of the Lambretta TV 175 and TV/GT 200 by Stuart Owen Pdf
The Lambretta TV 175 and TV 200 series three were seen as the natural evolution of the Slimstyle series which had been introduced in late 1961. The TV 175 was regarded as the pinnacle of Lambretta engineering and design by Innocenti, that was challenged by Lambretta Concessionaires and in particular, Peter Agg who felt it could be taken further. This eventually led to the creation of the TV 200 and in doing so changed Lambretta production forever.
