What a great car! Immediately after World War Two, there was a serious lack in cheap and reliable vehicles. The Ford Popular aimed to fill this gap, and when launched in 1953 was Britain's cheapest car. The name 'Popular' had previously been applied to the 1930s Ford model Y, and there is some visual similarity between these models. Production of the Ford Popular 103E lasted until 1959, when it was replaced by the more modernistic looking Popular 100E.
