Because the documentation related primarily to the Italian home market, ochre is commonly listed as the only colour option for 200 models, Electronic or not, however this is clearly wrong as there are many original paint examples still available and the UK documentation goes further by actually listing red (not sure about the white) as an original 200cc colour.
Thank you for the extra info Adam,
Going to go for Hawthorn White for my DL200E , this might provoke debate on the subject of colour originality but for me I want for mine to be a little different from what is perceived as standard, especially as you don't see that many Italian GP/DL's in Hawthorn White anyway. (Famous last words for that last comment as I expect a deluge of White GP's pictures from fellow members to prove me wrong !!)![]()

pretty much original spec body wise.When I bought it the tool box had been swapped out for a
chromed metal one.The frame has the hinge for the plastic petrol flap and it has the big holes
for the rear light also the plastic horn grill.
What I'd like to know is can anyone tell me if the toolbox should be black or grey?
The reason I ask is I have a late 1970 GP 200 which has plastic petrol flap and horn grill and it
has the black toolbox but I can't seem to find pictures anywhere of the 125 with the black
toolbox,only the grey.
It also has no battery tray and no signs of one ever being there but was definitely registered new
here in 1971
Any feedback would be much appreciated
Regards Mark
