Ariane is a reknown European launcher family, born in the 70s and still flying today ! From Ariane 1 to Ariane 4, the iterative designs are quite obvious, but Ariane 5 is widely different from the previous versions. It's also way more capable, but you may prefer to launch the previous ones to send small-sats into orbit at a lower cost. After all, some older Arianes definitely had moar boosters...
