Lot Description:1964 Ford Anglia Super 1200
-
Notes:A more powerful version of the Anglia joined the range in 1962, the Anglia Super. The Super used a larger 1197cc (1200) version of the standard Anglia engine and enjoyed improved performance as a result. To distinguish the new model, a two-tone paint scheme was standard which consisted of a side stripe and roof panel painted in a contrasting colour. Other "extras" included full wheel trims, better interior trim, a new front grille and extra badges. The Anglia Super lasted in production with the basic models until the all new Escort appeared in 1967. First registered in New Zealand in 1968, this beautiful little 123E Anglia has led a very pampered life. Finished in Ermine White over Platinum Grey, this amazing car has covered just under 16,500 miles from new and has only had three recorded owners. We are informed by the vendor that there is the original new car sales brochure with the car. There are few cars that are as easy to drive as a 123E Anglia. The predictable, user-friendly handling and light steering are a delight and the long gear shifter, with it's mechanical 'clunk click' action, is simplicity itself. This isn’t just an urban runabout though; head to an open road and this little Anglia is remarkably competent. The four cylinder engine may be modest, but its eager! With such low mileage, it’s no surprise that this car has survived so well. The bodywork is very straight and remarkably well preserved given it will be celebrating its 50th birthday next year. This Anglia is a very honest and unabused car that could be an excellent starter classic or alternatively could appeal to a real Ford enthusiast.
