CASA LAMBRETTA - More than 40 years of competence and passion
CASA LAMBRETTA – A brand inextricably linked to the name Vittorio Tessera, who has been doing everything in his power to support Lambretta for more than 40 years. The company’s headquarters in Milan, covering 800 square metres, houses not only a showroom, workshop and warehouse, but also a museum that is a place of pilgrimage not just for Lambretta fans. With its Catalogue, first published in 1996, CASA LAMBRETTA continues to provide a comprehensive overview of the market for these classic scooters.
Unique expertise and know-how
Almost all parts “Made in Italy”
A catalogue of almost 400 pages
It all began with a 1953 Lambretta 125 LD
Vittorio Tessera bought this at the age of 16 and was infected with the incurable disease known as “Lambrettismo”. Three years later, in 1980, he registered the company CASA LAMBRETTA and opened his first workshop. However, the Lambretta was not exactly widespread, nor was it particularly fashionable. Collectors tended to focus on brands such as MotoGuzzi, Bianchi or Gilera. Vittorio Tessera promptly founded the “Club Amici del vecchio Scooter” (Club for Friends of Old Scooters), which soon had 28 members.
Vittorio Tessera devoted the next 15 years to restoring scooters. In 1989, he revived the “Lambretta Club Italia” and, from 1996, the magazine “Lambretta Magazine”. He came into contact with the Innocenti family, and the inventors of the Lambretta entrusted him with the historical archives, prototypes and film footage. Vittorio Tessera began writing books, and to date he has published eleven works on the Lambretta. His next project and adventure was the museum, and today 175 vehicles are on display: one-off models, racing prototypes and production models. Admission is free.
CASA LAMBRETTA is created
The brand itself was launched in 1996 to market the products internationally. The market for Lambretta parts was chaotic at the time and prices were completely inconsistent. Vittorio Tessera published a price list, giving end customers a much-needed guide, and since then it has brought stability to the spare parts market. A dealer network was established, and Vittorio Tessera was soon working with over 40 partners worldwide. Today, the CASA LAMBRETTA Catalogue is practically the ‘Lambretta Bible’ and runs to around 400 pages.
As if all that weren’t enough, Vittorio Tessera also ventured into motorsport and established the CASA PERFORMANCE brand. High-tech products for tuning racing machines. With the help of these parts, the Rimini Lambretta Center Team achieved remarkable success in Europe.
Today, alongside his wife Orietta, three experienced mechanics work at CASA LAMBRETTA, responsible for restorations and product development. Vittorio Tessera has realised his lifelong dream and has had a significant influence on the Lambretta brand over the last few decades. It is also thanks to him and his team that these scooters continue to have many enthusiasts all over the world.
