cut and pasted from British Lambretta Archive. Looks like it's from a series 3 Li special
Series 3:
Li 125: Frame: Either 125Li or 125Li3* followed by numbers starting from 000,001 - Engine: 125Li* followed by numbers starting from 000,001
Li 150: Frame: 150Li3* followed by numbers starting from 600,001 - Engine: 150Li* followed by numbers starting from 600,001
*Note: The Li 150 engine numbers go up into the 700,001 range and confusion can arise as the Li 150 Special engines also feature within that number range.
TV 175: Frame: 175TV3* followed by numbers starting from 500,001 - Engine: 175TV/2* followed by numbers starting from 500,001
TV 200: Frame: TV3* followed by numbers starting at 512*** - Engine: TV/2* followed by numbers starting at 512***
*Note: The TV 175's and TV 200's were built in batches and it is impossible to say exactly which number sequences were allocated to each machine.
Li 125 Special: Frame: 125LiS* followed by numbers starting from 850,001 - Engine: 125LiS* followed by numbers starting at 850,001
Li 150 Special: Frame: 150LiS* followed by numbers starting at 200,001 - Engine: 150Li* followed by numbers starting at 700,001
*Note: See the note above in respect of the Series 3 Li 150 engine numbers.
