The Ford Eifel is a car manufactured by Ford Germany between 1935 and 1940. It initially complemented and then replaced the Ford Köln. It was itself replaced by the Ford Taunus.
Between 1937 and 1939 it was also assembled in Hungary. The Eifel was derived from the Ford Model C (Europe) 1934 platform, and is also related to the Dagenham built 1938 Ford Prefect 1939 Ford Anglia.
The model was named after the Eifel mountain range in western Germany.

Famous quotes containing the word ford:
“All this stuff you heard about America not wanting to fight, wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans, traditionally, love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle.... Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost—and will never lose—a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans.”
—Francis Ford Coppola (b. 1939)
