Ive had my Lambretta about 8 years and understood it to be Italian,i never bothered to check the frame number,but now i want to sell it I'm having problems.
I brought it and it had a LI 150 lump but two years ago i put a SX lump in it but didn't notifier Swansea with the new engine no.What I'd like to know is my log book has a 12 digit no but on the frame it shows the last six numbers of it,any idea what my scooter is. Any help would be appreciated...
Frame info pleas

there should be a prefix .. ie li150 followed by a star then the frame number ..star again then an igm number

Thank you for your reply
I've nothing at all either side of the six numbers,no SX just the six numbers. It's strange the,headset,horncast are all marked Innocenti but the bloody frame is a mystery.
Over the past eight years I've spent alot of money doing it up (Like we all have) and did'nt have any intention of selling it but now i want to sell it I'm having problems because when people ring up i dont know what to say when they ask about the frame number.

What plate is it on?
I had an SX in the late 80's which had had the frame number removed, after a couple of inspections dvla refused to issue an age related plate and issued a q plate and a new frame number. I guess it's possible that this might be something similar. I had a choice to either stamp the frame tube or permanently fix a plate with the new vin.
Loads of SIL parts are marked Innocenti as they used the original moulds so that's no guarantee of origin. It's also possible that parts have been substituted in the history of the machine or that it was assembled from bits in somebody's shed.
Frame is everything in identification. Some pics of the frame number and area around the near side rear support might help.
