The fourth generation Anglia 105E was introduced in 1959, with American-influenced styling included a sweeping nose line, and on deluxe versions, a full-width slanted chrome grille in between prominent eye headlamps. (Basic Anglias featured a narrower, painted grille) and small tail fins with perhaps its most distinctive feature a backward-slanted rear window Produced as a two door Saloon and an Estate car. The new car came with a new 997cc overhead valve (OHV) straight-four with an oversquare cylinder bore that became known as the Kent. Acceleration from rest was still sluggish, but it was much improved from earlier cars. Also new for British Fords was a four-speed manual gearbox with synchromesh on the top three forward ratios: this was replaced by an all-synchromesh box in September 1962 From 1962 the Anglia Super 123E was also introduced with a longer stroke 1197cc S4 OHV engine sold alongside the 100E Anglia and replacing the last of the line of 100E Prefects, Anglia saloons were provided with various levels of trim. The base model was the Standard, and this sported no chrome work, painted rear light surrounds, steel slatted grille and limited interior trim. The deluxe had a chrome side strip, chrome rear lights, glovebox lid, sun visor and full width chrome radiator grille. The top of the range was the Super, which had twin chrome side strips, contrasting coloured roof and side flash, plusher interior trim, together with the 1198 cc engine and a gearbox with synchromesh on first gear.
