Ford Popular is a car from Ford built ibetween 1953 and 1959. When production of the older Ford Anglia and Ford Prefect was stopped in 1953 the Popular was developed as a budget alternative. The Popular was based on the Anglia. It was powered by a Ford sidevalve 1172 cc four cylinder engine. The car was very basic. It had a single vacuum powered wiper, no heater, vinyl trim and very little chrome. Over 150 000 Popular was made.

In 1959 the old Popular was replaced by a new version that was in production until 1962. As the old version it used the Anglia shell and it was powered by a 1172 cc sidevalve engine.
