V765 Applications And Authentication Letters...

We provide DVLA accepted authentication letters to enable you to obtain an age-related plate for your Lambretta or Vespa scooter. The letters cover Lambrettas built in the main manufacturing countries for Lambretta of Italy, Spain and India (and we can also supply letters for Lambrettas made in France, Germany etc). The letters also cover Vespa scooters built in Italy, Spain, France, India and Great Britain.

Should you require a letter of authenticity for your Lambretta or Vespa please send your frame and engine number, Lambretta/Vespa model, and a cheque or Postal Order for £7 made out to BRITISH LAMBRETTA ARCHIVE and send (along with your details) to: British Lambretta Archive, 95 Grove Road, Blaby, Leicester, LE8 4DH. Alternatively, you can pay via Paypal by making your payment to: soulie66@aol.com

Ideally we'd like a frame rubbing or digital photo of the scooters frame number, however, this is not essential.

All letters come with a sheet detailing what you need to do next in order to register your scooter (Insurance, MOT etc.), thus ensuring that you are in possession of all the information you'll need to get on the road.

We look forward to hearing from you and helping you to register your scooter.

If you have any questions then please e-mail us at BLAAuthentications@hotmail.co.uk.

Please note that the turnaround time for letters of authentication is 7-14 days.

V765 Applications - if you are looking to retain the original registration number of your scooter then we will be happy to help. The cost for this service is still £7 and we will need to see the following:

(iii) V765 form

Send the above to us (do not send original documentary evidence to us as we will not be liable for any loss in transit) and we will issue you with a letter requesting the retention of the original mark along with us stamping and signing the relevant parts of the V765 form.
