The Hired Anglias

[Leon Sumter]

Remember these tough little green Ford Anglias that folk could hire in town. Man were they tough. One of my buddies who shall remain nameless used to have great fun riding around the back of the pink pan (yacht club) through the sand and back onto the road. Never seemed to get stuck in the sand.

Tough as nails .. only car   which never  got  birdshit on its back window ..

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

Oh Yes those Anglias.....whenever I've seen one I think of Oranjemund....oh yes they are still around.
Oranjemund and Anglias go to-gether.

Oh yes me too,whenever I see an Anglia even here in the U.k. sometimes I look for the
SC number plate.......how doff is that????
Hi Di how 're you ? on your WA... Ours is42 years this year!!!!

[Diana Rudd (Boehme)]

I'm well thanx Pam......42yrs and I thought I was good.

Now about those Anglia's????? Before we get in trouble.

Don't forget the Beetles that you could hire as well.  Charlie Huntley and I went to do our drivers' tests in one and shocked the devil out of "Monkey" Malan when we drove up as learners with no licenced driver - just us two - surprised he let us do our tests but we passed!  Reckon if I had to redo a K53 now, I may not pass!

Cherry here a pic of the Beetles .. I liked the chocolate brown one ..  the purple one was problematic ...

[Cherry (Alcock)]

Probably the same chocolate brown one we did our tests in !!
