Hi all, I was wondering if it standard for a V5C to have the word "moped" as body type??

Ive never owned a scooter, only large bikes and trikes

the V5C turned up yesterday for my project and I was wondering about it

its 1958 reg.

body: moped
Tax class: historic vehicle

make: lambretta with no model or variant etc??

even colour says next to it "not stated"

had my folder out of all my other V5's and they have make, model, colour etc

was just a little concerned about the phrase moped as I always understood that to mean it was a 50cc pedal and pop thing??

Hmmm mines logbooked as a 148cc engine number on the v5 is close to engine number.
Might return it with a letter and ask about the wording.
