• Extremely rare Piatti Cyclemaster scooter, seldom seen on the open market
• Designed by London-based Italian engineer Vincenzo Piatti, first unveiled at the 1952 Brussels Salon
• UK production taken up by Cyclemaster in 1956, famed for their pioneering lightweight engines
• Period advertising boldly claimed it to have 'the heart of a young lion' and to be 'the scooter for tomorrow'
• Distinctive and innovative design featuring adjustable seat and handlebars, plus a concealed toolbox within the seat base
• This example was produced in 1957 and retains its original specification
• Previously treated to a full nut-and-bolt restoration by Medway Scooters, completed to a very high standard
• British-built in very small numbers, delightfully quirky, and kept on display in a heated domestic environment; confirmed as 1957 by the Vintage Club
• Please note this Piatti is not currently UK-registered
