The Appeal
While the Cortina was busy grabbing sales success headlines, the smaller Anglia 105E quietly and fastidiously beavered away achieving much the same but with less attention.
It was a similarly clever idea, a compact, spacious and simple family car that channeled transatlantic style. Latterly made famous by a certain youthful wizard, the 105E has always been popular with enthusiasts for its rugged simplicity and distinctive looks.
Standard, unmolested examples are rare and here is one, a very smart Deluxe in Forest Green. It has clearly been cared for and is solid and presents well. It looks perfect for family days out, classic car rallies and shows.
