Funny how this could be a topic in DDK, but great that it is. I bought my Italian TV 175 Series 3 about 12 years ago. Nice scooter with a mind to replicating the TV I had above. Just bought though a Barlotti kart to restore / run and i thought the kart would pull more heart strings than a Lambretta...

The GT 200 was never badged as such from the factory, always as TV 200, and was produced only for the UK market on the insistence of Peter Agg, who imported them here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan_(racing_team)

Hi sanjay - GS 150'5 were all that colour - sounds interesting - I suppose it's down to cost - good useable scooter tho - plenty of power will easly keep up with traffic around town. Not a rocker - just love Indian m/c's - dress up once a year and get to be part of Goodwood Revival - great fun! 911...

GranSport did a lot of the restoration work on my SX200 a few years ago, but Des has since moved abroad.

Efficient, and reasonably priced.

GOLD 2.4

I shot this for a friend at the weekend, and not having seen this colour on a 911 before, was more than a little impressed.

I still think the greatest all-round classic magazine was 'Supercar Classics.' Stunning photography, in particular. It started out as a quarterly, but then went monthly and seemed to run out of steam, eventually folding shortly afterwards. I'm proud to say I've got a full run of them. They regularly...
