The history of the Lambretta Grand Prix - Stuart Owen - Bog

The Grand Prix was the final series of Lambretta scooters to be built. Launched in 1969 it was based around the restyling of the SX model with the transformation being carried out by Italian designer Bertone. Offered in three different choices and a striking new colour scheme it became an instant hit with customers. The Grand Prix 200 was fitted with the most powerful engine Innocenti ever produced and was capable of 70mph, thus labelling it the ultimate sports scooter.
