1962 Ariel Leader, 247cc. Registration number 51 FPX. Frame number T28963/B. Engine number T28963/B unconfirmed. Designed by Val Page and his team, the Ariel Leader and its sports derivative, the Arrow, sought to combine the virtues of speed and agility with those of cleanliness and convenience. Launched in 1958 and powered by an all-new 247cc air-cooled two-stroke twin with unit gearbox, the Leader also broke with British tradition in its frame and suspension design, employing a stiff, fabricated-steel beam instead of tubes, and a trailing-link front fork. Detachable panels enclosing the engine and most of the rear wheel extended forwards to meet leg-shields and screen while the rear chain was fully enclosed. This example is an older restoration and comes from a deceased estate. It was last taxed in 2005. There is no paperwork with the lot except for a 2004 tax disc, it is recoded on the DVLA website.
