1960 Ogle 1.5 (One-Point-Five)

The Ogle 1.5 (or One-Point-Five) was a car built in 1960. In 1959, Ogle Design was a pretty successful industrial design firm responsible for, amongst others, the Bush TR82 radio. Owner David Ogle decided he wanted to turn his hand to car design, and in 1960 the company launched the Ogle 1.5 saloon. Based on Riley 1.5 underpinnings with a fiberglass body, it was Ogle's idea of a bespoke luxury car, like a sort of mini-Bristol. The huge price, not to mention mediocre performance, put off most people. Only eight were built.
