Lambrettas, Vespas, and many more makes in full colour!

the history of the scooter, and full colour photos of well over 30 rare and classic scooters from around the world, are presented in this lovely book. The price for this book,(hardback,colour photos),makes it an absolute bargain! If, like me, your knowledge of scooters, did not go beyond Lambrettas or Vespas, you will be delighted to see many other makes, with wonderful sounding names such as : Sun Wasp, Autoglider,Unibus,Zundapp Bella,Dayton Albatross, etc.etc.! The book is also interspersed with "period" literature, from the days before compulsarory crash helmets! This really is a delightful book,full of nostalgia,and is highly recommended.

Good as a guide for repairing, restoring and maintenance

Although it focuses on restoration, these sections give you great advice when doing repairs and upgrades. The maintenance section is more then big enough for general maintenance. It helps in more then just restoring as it can be used as a guide to repairing. Good guide to models, a nice chapter on performance tuning and easy to understand.

an excellent handbook for repairs and restauration

Darnell and Golfen present a well written and easy to understand handbook for amateurs who want to investigate the inside of their Vespa scooters. Pictures, step-by-step instructions and warnings make the job easy. A short history of the Vespa scooter opens the book. Recommendable reading for all Vespa enthusiasts.
