This Matchless Silver Arrow is a fascinating and rare survivor. It was manufactured in 1931, but these were difficult times, and it sat in a dealer's showroom until it found a buyer in January 1933. The design was very innovative: the engine was a narrow angle in line V twin, with rear suspension and coupled brakes, but less than 2,000 were manufactured before it was quietly dropped in 1934. This very smart example was restored by the vendor's late father. No instrument panel is fitted, but a 2 piece metal binnacle is included in the sale. It is offered with a V5C and old style buff log book. The engine has been regularly turned over, but it has not been run for several years and re-commissioning will be required. Prospective bidders should satisfy themselves as to the motorcycle's mechanical condition.
