I have to ask, why are people buying Lammy body pieces from overseas when Lammy body bits from England put out some excellent body work. Doesn't make sense to me.
Another shop and myself went in on about 5g's worth of it years ago and there was not one problem with fitment etc.
Why aren't you lot suporting your own homegrown part manufacturer?

Lambretta Body Bits don't advertise themselves very well.
They run a small advert in Scootering, but I don't think they have a website and no means of buying online.They rely largely on recommendation (all of which is good from what I've heard), and word of mouth.

These days, many people would rather buy from a website (shop site or eBay) than contact somewhere direct. I know that this will seem strange, but it seems to be how it is.
I'm sure that if they had a decent website with an online shopping facility and decent pictures of their products then they would sell many more.

The same is true for the guy that does the fibreglass bits.
Maybe they want to keep it on a small scale, but they are missing a trick!

I've heard of them but they seem more publicity shy than the Masons. Do they want to be in business or not?

I never buy Scootering (why bother every issue has been basically the same since some time in the 1980s) and I'm out at work all day so the internet is by far the easiest place to shop.
