The brand new edition 51 of ScooterNova magazine is finished and winging it’s way to the printers as I type. Have you ordered your copy yet?Edition 51 hits the streets on 22 August 2025, but if you want to get your magazine delivered to you in the comfort of your own home then pre-order 51 today via our online shop here and it will be posted out directly from the printers next week.
Inside you will a magazine packed with all things scooter related from the stunning Lambretta SX230 ‘Superfly’ to an exclusive interview with the legendary Andrea Pinasco (our cover star), the man behind the first off-the-shelf Vespa tuning kits.
We also have an exclusive interview with Dean Orton, ‘The Story of a Professional Mod’ in which he talks about his life from being a young Mod in Cornwall to running one of the most famous Lambretta shops in Italy.
If you have ever yearned to own a rare Vespa but could never find one for sale, how about getting a replica built? It’s not as easy as it sounds, as the article about the Sei Giorni Vespa built in England explains.
And for those who like to learn more about rebuilds, our Lambretta 200dl rusty resto series reaches part three in the latest magazine. Would you have dared undertake that project?
We go back to the 1960s and have a look at hew Lambretta Club GB Rally Support vehicle that was a common sight at both LCGB and other scooter rallies and races in the UK. It also took the Lambretta team out to Italy a couple of time for races such as the Milan-Taranto. Not only have we got rare archive images and tales from those who used the van back then, but we also feature a modern day replica along with the S-Type Lambretta ridden by it’s owner and builder.
Euro Lambretta in Ayr, Aberystwyth, Big 7 and the Croydon Rodeo are all covered inside edition 51, as well as product reviews, news, BSEC scooter endurance racing….
… and a road test of the new Vespa GTS 310 against an older GTS 300. Read edition 51 to see which one comes out on top.
And finally who doesn’t like an ice-colder cider in this kind of weather, hey? This stunning Lambretta Series 1 is another star of edition 51, and also allows you to decide how long the designer of the Panther Princess scooter that was built in Yorkshire back in 1959 spent looking at a Lambretta for inspiration. Hmmm…
All this and more inside edition 51 of ScooterNova, which will be available from all good scooter shops, plus branches of WH Smith and TG Jones from 22 August 2025. Alternatively you can subscribe and/or buy online from the ScooterNova shop via this link here.
Enjoy the ride, enjoy the read.
