Panther Model 60
Largely unchanged from the prewar middleweight (introduced initially for 1932) the now two-tone blue (prewar it was black) 250cc Model 60 reappeared in 1946 and, for 1947, gained Dowty Oleomatic ‘air’ forks. Tested by The Motor Cycle in early 1948, it recorded more than 100mpg at normal speeds, and nearly 140mpg at 30mph
