Funny how diverse our tastes can be.
Chris in Bristol and myself grew up in the same era with Lambrettas and yet I find A plates endearing.
Lovely purchase...you'll form a bond for life.
Lose the mirror mounts.... go to Lambretta Restore and buy a mirror that sits on a modified bolt that screws through brake lever...nicest dealers around.
Last tip: buy a large tin of Swarfega !!

Hah I'll add the lovely green jelly to my shopping list, thanks Chris!
The handlebar-mount mirror is for offside only I presume?
I like my A-plate; A is for Andrew
