Carlo Guzzi's final design, the 176cc Lodola (lark) arrived in 1956. The 175cc class had long been established as one of the most important in Italy, and the Lodola's arrival at last gave Moto Guzzi a foothold in the category. Powered by a single-overhead-camshaft engine inclined in a duplex loop frame, the Lodola combined adequate performance with excellent fuel economy and sound handling. A Sport version followed and then in 1959 the model was enlarged to 235cc, becoming the Lodola Gran Turismo. This smartly turned out Moto Guzzi Lodola was purchased by the vendor's late father in 2000 having been imported from Italy by the previous owner. The latter had commenced restoration before selling the machine to the vendor's father, who continued the rebuild. Presented in apparently good order, the Guzzi has not been used for some time (the attached tax disc expired on 31st January 2015) and will require sympathetic re-commissioning before returning to the road. The machine is offered with an IMOC dating letter; a quantity of expired MoTs and tax discs; instruction manuals; and old/current V5C Registration Certificates.
