**PART THREE — Bringing the Magic Home 🚙⚡️✨**

Well, it turns out we were definitely interested…

A deal was struck and our trip to Melbourne to collect the car was planned.

Then, in a rather magical twist of timing, a last-minute opportunity came up for Elwood and I to join Arron on one of his work trips — something we'd never had the chance to do before.

It was an opportunity of a lifetime and somehow the three of us found ourselves wandering through **The Wizarding World of Harry Potter together. ⚡️✨**

And upon our return from **Hogsmeade**, there was another little adventure waiting for us…

We hooked up the trailer and headed to Melbourne.

After years of phone calls, advice and plenty of car talk, Arron finally got to meet Tim from Angry Anglia in person — and we finally got to see the car that was about to become ours.

We loaded her onto the trailer, said our goodbyes and began the long drive back to Aldinga.

Somewhere on that drive home, it felt like another piece of **The Burrows** had fallen into place.

Our original girl is safely tucked away and her restoration story will continue, but this one gets to start a different adventure.

Because now, after all these years…

**The Burrows finally have their Anglia. 🚙⚡️✨**

We have discovered a couple of small problems since bringing her home though…

**She doesn't appear to fly, and the Invisibility Booster is definitely malfunctioning. 👀**

We're sure Mr Weasley would know exactly what to do.

Until then, we'll just have to make our own kind of magic with her. ✨

And if there's one thing we've learnt from creating The Burrows, it's that we quite like making the seemingly impossible feel just a little bit real.

So now that she's here…

what sort of magic should we make with her? ✨

**PART TWO — A Different Kind of Magic ✨**

With the Anglia home, the restoration began.

It was around this time that Arron connected with **Tim from Angry Anglia in Melbourne**.

Tim became a wealth of knowledge and support as Arron stripped the car down and started working out exactly what would be involved in bringing her back to life.

We knew it was going to be a long-haul project.

But then, another slightly crazy idea began demanding our attention…

We wanted to build somewhere completely different.

A place for grown-ups to escape the ordinary, filled with hidden details, nostalgia, a little mischief and plenty of magic.

**The Little Burrow came to life. ✨**

And somewhere amongst all of this, our own lives changed in the most wonderful way too…

**we had Elwood. ❤️**

Then, because apparently a new baby, a Burrow and an Anglia restoration weren't keeping us quite busy enough…

**The Tiny Burrow followed.**

Suddenly our attention had shifted from restoring an old car to creating an entirely new world of our own.

So the Anglia project was put on hold.

But while she waited, her extraordinary past caught the attention of Arron’s uncle.

He wrote about Anne and Mora’s adventures and their remarkable journey with the little Anglia, which caught the attention of a classic-car magazine in England.

Our restoration may have paused…

**but her story certainly hadn't.**

Eventually life settled enough for Arron to start talking seriously with Tim about Anglias again.

And that's when Tim mentioned something that changed the plan completely.

He happened to have another **105E Ford Anglia**.

And unlike our restoration project…

**this one was ready to drive.**

Would we be interested?

**To be continued… 🚙⚡️**

**PART ONE — Before The Burrows 🚙✨**

Some stories take decades to find their way back to you…

Back in 2020, I was sorting through old childhood toys at my parents’ house when I found a Matchbox semi-trailer.

Tucked inside were two little cars.

A **Ford Anglia**… and an **E-Type Jaguar**.

The Anglia was, of course, the car from Harry Potter — needless to say, I was thrilled!

The E-Type?

Arron’s favourite car.

There was **no Little Burrow. No Tiny Burrow. Elwood hadn’t even been born.**

Although perhaps there had already been a little **prophecy of things to come… 🔮**

When we bought our land in Aldinga, we spent a year living there in a vintage caravan while building our home. We affectionately called it **“The Little Hallows.”**

Once our house was built, Arron’s dad visited from overseas and the Matchbox Anglia sparked a memory.

When Arron was a boy, they regularly visited a dairy at Point Sturt where an old pale-blue Anglia sat in the shed.

Could it possibly still be there?

Father and son went looking…

**and there she was.**

Sitting under a cloak of dust, sleeping the years away.

Nobody was home, so they left their names and number pinned to the door.

Eventually they met the owners, **Anne and Mora**, and discovered this little car had an extraordinary past.

They’d bought her in Britain and driven her **19,000 miles from Scotland, across Europe and Asia to Calcutta**, before shipping her to Melbourne and eventually settling at Point Sturt.

Anne and Mora offered Arron the car if he would restore her. Arron insisted on paying **$500**.

Their only request?

Once restored, they wanted to be her passengers in the **Bay to Birdwood Rally. ❤️**

Perhaps it was meant to be — **Arron’s dad was a panel be**er and mine a mechanic.**

The following weekend, she came home to Aldinga.

**And her story was far from over… ✨**
