Originally supplied to Anderson & Wall of Bridgwater, the Ariel retains its original Somerset registration, however this is not transferable. The Ariel clearly 'fell off' the DVLA system some years ago and our late vendor's husband had the bike reinstated when he restored it. Now in our vendor's name, it is showing only 1 previous owner on the V5C. Reportedly owned by the vendor's late husband's father since 1972 and was later passed into the ownership of the vendor's husband. Now presenting as a well restored example with minor signs of storage starting to show. Last used c. 3 years ago, some recommissioning will be required before use.
Key, V5C, older versions, invoices and reference material in office
Estimate: £8, 000 - £9, 000
