I think I paid similar for my Garelli moped in early 74. I wasn't old enough for a bike.

What was the name of the bike shop? Was it Gloucester or something similar?

It was run by two or three brothers.
It will come to me probably in the middle of the night:lolol:

I know what you mean. Long time ago. I have a feeling it was called Gloucester Cycles but I may be mixing it up with other Bike shops I was looking at, at the time.

I did 5 years with Redhill Motors 76 - 81 - half in Brighton, then up in Lewes.
Gloucester Motors had a lock-up type place just along from North Road in Gloucester Road.
Concur with [MENTION=12090]Garage_Doors[/MENTION] - Speedway was in Ann Street them moved out to close by the Lewes Gyratory

That moped looks like a Honda "Camino" not really a lads moped like the Fizzy and AP50 were - I had a seriously modified Puch M50 Sports which I once got very close to 50MPH .... downhill with a tail wind
