Thanks datsunZ, I've been trying to find more about this car. Ogle are mainly design and prototyping consulants in Letchworth UK about 25 miles from where I live. They did some work for the company I worked for about 10 years ago and I recommended them based on the work I remembered they did in the 1960s based on the Mini and Reliant cars. Is your source of information from the internet? -- Last edit: 2006-11-03 13:05:38 |

No,simply an extract in 3 parts taken from Classic & Sportscar,issued in 1991 circa,titled"A-Z of cars-Each car sold in UK 1945-1980"(not a true book,but however a source of infos taken by that famous UK-printed old cars magazine that you certainly had read sometimes,I suppose) |

Thank you Alexander and datsunZ. I've been able to read a little more about Ogle cars. I didn't realise David Ogle actually died as a result of an accident in the same car. But I do remember the name of Tom Karen who was the designer following David Ogle's death and responsible for the work with Reliant cars. Thanks again. ![]() |
