This, I know will not be to everybody's taste.

But this is the unique first Ogle Sotheby Special that has just been unearthed after 43 years. In need of restoration of course but totally original and awaiting a new home soon - only the brave and wealthy need apply.

Would it be fantastic if, whoever took on the project, allowed it to be recorded and kept by the Trust for future generations - and for us to see of course!! Truly an epic find! yes

Looks in many ways very similar to the TVR SM Zante which was at the 1970/71 motor show. whistlegetmecoat

Lovely story. Didn't one of those used to be in UFO?

I can just imagine an auctioneer: 'Lot 262 - a DBS V8 by Ogle Design, The Sotherby Special. Completely fked in every respect. Sir.' smile

Nice wheels but the Landy looks a better bet

I guess if it goes into a Bonhams auction they will have to lose the Sotherby title and just call is Ogle getmecoat

Great to see this. Not pretty IMO, but cool and a very interesting piece of AM history.
