History of Spanish built Lambretta's

Lambreta’s were first introduced into Spain in the early 1950’s. These machines were Innocenti models. Production of Lambretta in Spain began in 1954 by Lambretta Locomociones in the town of ‘Eibar’.

All early models were locally produced copies of Italian models – all were badged as ‘Eibar’ (rather than Innocenti).

Following the demise of the Innocenti factory, the Spanish were forced to reorganise their Lambretta production. In late 1973 they renamed themselves ‘Serveta’.

Production of Lambretta in Spain continued until approximately 1987, when the factory finally folded. Towards the end, production was in small batches and had split across two sites. 

Spanish produced Lambretta’s are generally regarded to be equal (or even higher) quality than their Italian equivalent models. It was no accident that Innocenti allowed the Eibar factory to produce the 3 millionth Lambretta in the world in 1964.

Generally all ‘Eibar’ badged models are as good as an Innocenti produced machine. Plus most parts are inter-changeable between Italian and Spanish machines.

As production carried on into the 1980’s ‘Serveta’s’ did pick up a bad reputation for their poor electrics – however in all other aspects they were much better than the equivalent Indian produced models. 

Why buy this model?

It is a true 125cc machine and so is learner legal. Plus it is a bit different to the rest! Keep as is or dead easy to convert to more traditional looks.
