I tabulated these production numbers for Montesa. Can anyone add to them, correct, contradict or otherwise illuminate. 

1966 LA cross 66 Modelo 250: 1333 

1967 Cappra 250 M33 207 

1968 Cappra 250 GP M53 250

1970 Cappra 125 "MX" 18M 1855 

1971 Cappra 250 "MX" 63M 1100 
Cappra 250 "MX" (nuevo amort/escape) 

1973 Cappra 250 "VR" 73M 2400

Cappra 360 "VB" "78" 66M 400

1980 Cappra 125 "VF" 38M2878 
Cappra 250 "VF" 73M 600 
Cappra 414 "VF" 63M 339 

1981 Cappra 250 "VG" 73M15939 

Numbers tabulated from http://www.montesaweb.com/f_home_cast.htm

There are some obvious blanks,such as 1974 and 1977 numbers missing, and variations, such as some years no numbers for 125 or 360’s. Were they not produced? 

Did MX production start in 1966 and end in 1981? 

Cheers, and thanks, Graeme.
