Audio slideshow: The cult of the scooter 
"The Lambretta scooter ridden by actor Phil Daniels in the 1970s film Quadrophenia recently sold at auction for £36,000.
Not all scooters can boast such a famous history, but for enthusiasts - or scooterists as they are known
- the bikes remain iconic symbols of the past.
For Radio 4's You and Yours, Stephanie Power joined the mods and skinheads at a rally at Bridlington in East Yorkshire
- to see why the scooter has been so enduring."
