The Legendary Flying Car in Harry Potter


Another awesome Warner Bros. Pictures film has been viewed all over the world just recently - “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” (the movie version of JK Rowling’s 5th book). Hermione Granger just got lovelier this time. No other words to define the film but a simple “Wonderful!”

Looking back to the previous series, I’m sure Harry Potter enthusiasts had their own favorite parts. I’m not talking about the Ford Anglia’s parts or a Chevrolet Camaro fuel pressure gauge or any of your favorites car parts. I’m speaking of the parts of the movie you won’t ever forget - may it be in “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”, “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets”, “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”, “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” or in the most recent flick.

Personally, I wouldn’t forget the Ford Anglia Flying Car, a classic 1962 Ford vehicle featured in “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets”. Who would? Since it was even stolen from their studios in Cornwall, marked in our minds, this became very much memorable. And because it is not in good driving condition, a police officer’s statement regarding this matter was reported to be saying, “The thieves may not have known its connection with the films and just thought it was a classic car, or it may have been a Harry Potter freak,” have been well known.


Since the vehicle was reported stolen, the thieves weren’t able to get a good deal from it and just decided to leave it in the ruined 14th Century Carn Brae Castle in Cornwall. They probably thought somebody would ridiculously take it or would even believe it will fly.

So much of that issue, I just kind of reminisce the event.

Oh well, I can’t seem to resist the excitement for the rest of the books to be filmed, namely “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” and “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows”. I guess these would be even more thrilling as the whole story comes to a close.
