1964 Lambretta TV200 0.2L Petrol · JHR 390B

The 1964 Lambretta TV200 remains roadworthy as confirmed by the 12 September 2025 MOT pass at 23,498 miles, with the tester recording no defects. The maintenance trend across the five successive annual tests from 2021 to 2025 is stable, showing no advisories or failures at any stage. Recorded mileage rose from 23,337 miles at the 22 September 2021 examination to 23,498 miles at the 12 September 2025 test, a total increment of 161 miles over four years. This averages near 40 miles per year on a 62-year-old vehicle, indicating light recreational use and probable long-term storage. The sequence contains no gaps; each September assessment occurred within a few weeks of the prior date, implying the previous owner maintained statutory testing discipline despite minimal running. No examiner flagged binding brakes, worn suspension bushes or structural corrosion during any entry. A buyer must still scrutinise the front fork linkage, rear suspension units and drum brake shoes for age-related stiffness or perishment. The tubular frame and floor pan may harbour hidden rust despite the clean paper history. Verify exhaust integrity and cable operation on site, as historic two-wheelers can conceal intermittent faults absent from MOT logs. The unbroken pass record suggests careful keeping, but mechanical survey by a classic specialist remains prudent before purchase.
