Designer of the mighty chopper amongst other mental designs
Some seriously cool things fallen of the end of his HB pencil
I had a Scimitar and used to regularly joke with a a local garage about them selling me their Bug.
A great stylist.
Loved my Scimitar, such a great design.
I hadn't realised he was responsible for the chopper as well.

Alongside Choppers (looked cool but were horrible to ride) , Bond Bugs, Scimitar GTE's, the Leyland Roadtrain etc, Many great things came out of Ogle (the design company he ran) when he was there
They built a lot of the props for the original Star Wars (a new hope) movie including Luke's Speeder , the Y-wing and then the, if I remember correctly, the Snowspeeders from Empire strikes back.
Oh, and Ogle also did a load of work on the original Ford Sierra...
A few years back he was due to come into the Art College where I work to do a design lecture, regrettably he'd been double booked with something else so couldn't make it so we showed a review of his work, naturally none of the design students had ever heard of him or knew about any of the the things he had done, including, I'm slightly horrified to say, the Star Wars stuff. I dunno, kids today etc.
RIP one great old school Designer
