The 100E was Ford's first small monocoque vehicle, and although the engine capacity was the same as earlier sidevalve models it was actually an entirely new design. The car was introduced at the 1953 Motor Show under the names Anglia (two door) and Prefect (four door). The Anglia was slightly lighter than the Prefect, and hence, according to whose road tests one believes, it was fractionally faster. More Anglias were built than any other 100E model, and the same basic car continued in production until 1962, having been renamed the 'New Popular' in 1959. The 100E was the best selling car in Britain in the mid 1950s.

Besides the 100E Popular, the FSOC 100E Register also caters for the 100E Squire and Escort estate car variants, as well as the 300E Thames van.
