The 20TA trials model was introduced for the 1958 season having been awarded the name "Scottish" to commemorate Jack Simpson's first win for the Greeves team in the 200cc class of the 1957 Scottish Six Days Trial The new model, which benefited greatly from Brian Stonebridge's development efforts, employed the 20SA scrambles frame equipped with revised footrests and a sprung saddle and housed a Villiers 9E engine fitted with a wide-ratio gearbox, a longer inlet manifold for the Villiers S25 carburettor providing more torque at lower rpm, coupled with a raised exhaust and modified Villiers silencer The TE and TES machines used a 247cc 32A Villiers engine, the TES utilising a Greeves factory alloy barrel and cylinder head The 'Scottish' monicker remained in place until 1967 when the Anglian and Wessex models were introduced This example has been partially restored with the frame repainted in the correct Moorland Blue, yet it still retains many of its original parts, including its gloriously battered fuel tank, showing its competition heritage Road-registered and supplied with a current V5C The bike is running and riding and could be enjoyed in pre-65 trials, or subject to further restoration, or simply enjoyed as a classic green-laner as is.
