Googling around, it looks like the the wiki Anglia page is as good as any for referencing, but lots of Aus pictures found for treasured survivors eg example. For 1949 it was updated with the new Anglia E494A (UK) front (tall twin split grille) as the Anglia 10 Tourer [A494A], presumably with "10" also reflecting engine upgrade. Amongst other things this spawned a Trax 1:43 two-tone blue resin (TRR06) model in 2016, long sold out now.
