Description

Very rare in this condition ABC Scootamota. Manufactured by Gilbert Campling Ltd of Piccadilly. ondon for which they held the sole rights. Arguably the first REAL scooter to be introduced to the mechanised transport markets. In my possession for the last 12 years though I never got it going due to a duff magneto. Lately I had the magneto repaired by David Lindsley. ost 450 pounds. I haven't tried to start it but it has plenty of compression. parks. bviously. nd the carb appears to be in very good order. Lubrication is of the total loss kind ie you handpump oil to the crank and repeat  every 3 or 4 miles. Starting it by pushing it along and you stall the engine by depressing the decompressor. These scooters rarely come on the market and are real museum pieces or get it running and try your luck at the Banbury run. The scooter comes with old type V5 and Brian Verrals invoice to myselfFor more info and photos please feel free to contact me. PRICED TO SELL. Upon an agreed sale I require a deposit of 200 GBP payable into my Paypal account within 12hrs from agreement.
