In October 1954 the first Lambrettas with 150 cc capacity hit the market. The increased power output also brought an increase in top speed: Innocenti stated 88 kph as standard Vmax, while the consumption figures stayed the same as before. Also the open-frame D 150 models received the fan-driven cooling system of the LD version. Also the dreaded Teleflex gearchange-cable is finally superseded by two standard cables, a system to be continued with all subsequent Lambretta models. For the first time, a damper is mounted at the rear along the torsion springing to improve the handling.
In January 1957 a reworked LD model appeared, both in 125cc and 150cc capacity. The engines were left unchanged apart from the kickstart mechanism, however the outer appearance was significantly modernised.
XVP was first registered with DVLA in 2021 by our vendor who restored it. Since this time it has been part of his scooter collection that he now downsizing.
