Based on a DBS V8 chassis, the bodywork was constructed from glassfibre and above the waistline is totally formed from glass supported on a tubular frame of Reynolds 531 (as found on the very best bicycles at the time!). The rear panel was made of a single sheet of brushed stainless steel with 22 holes cut into it for the rear lamps. The harder the driver braked, the more lights were illuminated. The headlamps are hidden by panels that drop down when the lamps are in use.

Also of note is that the car has a single sideways rear seat which must make this the only post war three seater Aston Martin.

A second sister car based a DBSV8 automatic chassis, was also built as the result of a request of a private customer in 1973. But the price was very high indeed. The car was reputed to have cost £28,750 when the standard car was only £8749. This particular car (left) has had the original fuel injection system removed and replaced with Weber carburettors. This has necessitated a bonnet bulge to give the extra height which would not have been there when the car was first shown. The car is featured in the sales catalogue for the Christies auction at Retromobile, 12th February 2005.

The problem with a car such as the Ogle that so closely follows fashion, is that it can start to look outdated very quickly - and I'm afraid that it does look very '70's'. But despite it's looks, the reduction in weight  made the Ogle significantly quicker than the standard DBS V8.
