The Appeal

You shouldn't judge a book by its cover. This humble Ford Anglia has been in long-term Millionaire ownership, stored in their mansion since the 1960s. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that it has received a level of upkeep that far exceeds that of most Ford Anglias. We're informed that £8,000 has been spent on mechanical refurbishment alone; invoices totalling £2,914.17 accompany the car.

The Ford Anglia 100E holds a special place in the hearts of classic Ford enthusiasts. With its distinctive rounded lines and accessible, uncomplicated engineering, it epitomises the charm of 1950s British motoring and remains a popular choice for rallies, shows, and gentle weekend drives.

With freshly renewed mechanicals and fascinating provenance, this is a great opportunity for those seeking a well-sorted Anglia.
