The colour tone is different or is that just patina?

Well spotted. It's hard to see until you look closely, even in the flesh, that the leggies on the Lui have had a blow over a long time ago. The nice thing about Italian imports is the lack of rust and the nuts and bolts just unscrew even after 43 years. The Lui even has the orginal toolkit under the seat.

Not sure about all Italian imports... Italy is a large, elongated country and it also has its wet areas as well. For instance, there is a huge difference between a scooter that lived all its life in sunny Gallipoli and another one which spend all its hard working days in the foggy and rainy areas of Lombardy or the snows of Piemonte...

Very well done about the tool kit. Those are the little things that do make a difference.

Yes, they must have come from the South I guess. I thought Galliopli was in Turkey unless there's also the same named place in Italy.
