if anyone (not chandlerman, patina must be preserved) is interested in a Lambretta Model C, I know a guy...

Part of me really wants it, part of me knows I will likely never get around to getting it running.

Gran Turismo Performance do say (elsewhere) that the cylinders give about 3 times the original performance. Probably still not saying much though...

On the VCOA bikes for sale page.

Don't want to plaster the dude's info all over the place. Follow the link. $2500 for a clean P200E is a good deal these days.

I think the North San Diego Peeps picked this one up if its the yellow P...**Lost** Title said one ad. However the seller always has fairly legit stuff posted.

The scene up there in Carlsbad/Oceanside is solid right now and they do a lot of rides if you are in OC or South SD

It has always been my opinion when shopping for a used vehicle to stay away from ones that recently had the oil changed prior to selling. Let's say your buying a car and you check the oil and find out its low on oil, dark and dirty, frothy with water residue etc.. Then you know there are issues with the vehicle and past maintenance. But if the oil was changed just prior to selling...... You might be dealing with a seller trying to hide something.

My two cents

Absolutely that.

My dad would say, don't buy a car that's already warmed up when you get there, and NEVER buy a car in the rain! Laughing emoticon
