The book describes Arthur Weasley as the owner of a 1960 [[Ford Anglia|Ford Anglia 105E]], which he subsequently enchanted; consequently, the [[flying car (fiction)|vehicle can fly]], become invisible, and carry the entire Weasley family in spite of its formerly non-enchanted interior dimensions (also the Undetectable Extension Charm), among other abilities. The enchantment placed on the car also made it semi-sentient.

The 1962 Ford Anglia used in the film was acquired by [[Rupert Grint]], who plays Ron Weasley, and is currently displayed in the [[National Motor Museum, Beaulieu]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.beaulieu.co.uk/attractions/on-screen-cars |title=On Screen Cars &#124; Beaulieu, New Forest |publisher=Beaulieu.co.uk |date=2014-06-20 |access-date=2017-03-01}}</ref> A total of 14 Ford Anglias were destroyed during the filming of the scene where the car crashes into the Whomping Willow.

A replica of the car in its feral state could be seen in the queue line for the now-defunct [[Dragon Challenge]] roller coaster at the [[Universal's Islands of Adventure|Universal Studios Islands of Adventure]] theme park. Occasionally it blinked its headlights and honked its horn when its motion detectors sensed that guests were standing in front of it or walking by it. The replica has been integrated into [[Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure]] and can be seen sitting atop a large rock formation with its windshield wipers and headlights running while under the control of Cornish Pixies. It can also be heard blaring its horn as riders pass beneath the arch. The car appears in the [[Hogwarts Express (Universal Orlando Resort)|Hogwarts Express]] attraction where it can be seen flying alongside the train before crashing in the Forbidden Forest.<ref>{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQdReb_tMWg |title=Hogwarts Express Train Ride Full POV from Kings Cross to Hogsmeade at Universal Studios Orlando |date=2014-07-06 |last=TemporaryTourist |access-date=2025-04-04 |via=YouTube}}</ref>
