Post by: Quiller on October 23, 2013, 05:07:36 PM

I have it as 'lambretta lammy special'

Post by: Quiller on December 07, 2013, 05:44:14 AM
It is indeed Lambretta based and you've found the right machine. It does have a 'name' so I will lock it for you

Post by: Paul Jaray on December 07, 2013, 11:41:14 AM
You can unlock, I've got a couple of pics but no further details.
Is it named after its builder or has it got a proper name?
Title: Re: Q844
Post by: Quiller on December 07, 2013, 04:33:16 PM
It does have a name ... Though rather a generic one ( and pretty inappropriate for this escaped dodgem car )
