and again point

Are you sure it's the modern kit car and not an Ogle-Mini?
They are very similar so can you tell me which details make it an NC1000 please.
I used to own an early Ogle (pre-SX1000) like this (poor photo taken from a 1970s slide which I can no longer find):

What do the blanked-out badge and numberplate show?

Note that the front indicators are different (rectangular on the puzzle car).
Did all Ogles have round front indicators or was there a variety?

Ogles did use those standard Lucas round lamps - but then on the Nostalgia web site, so does their NC 1000. The photo there (below) also shows side indicator repeater lamps and no front bumper, but as it's a kit car probably no two are alike - well by now no two Ogles will be either, I'd guess.

I am sure it is not a Nostalgia NC1000 but an Ogle SX1000.

Webasto roof and wing mirror might point to it being an Ogle.
But then again they might not...!

Never seen a mirror mounted there on one before.
Webasto roof could have been on an Ogle, but most didn't have 'em as new.
As I said before, after 40-odd years most Ogles won't still be just as they were made - mine wasn't after only 15 years.

Carnut · « **Reply #14 on:** July 29, 2010, 06:39:11 PM »

Yes. What I meant was it's a bit of a period mirror, but then you can still buy them for period cars..

However, it would be very unusual for a Webasto roof to be fitted these days, so even if not fitted new it could have been fitted some time ago. Are they still obtainable?

barrett · « **Reply #15 on:** July 30, 2010, 02:57:53 AM »

Webasto roofs are definitely still available, I know someone who had one fitted to a Datsun 280c (ruining a great car, IMHO).
I'd have to agree that the puzzle car looks like an Ogle, it seems to have an old-style tax disc, and the quality of the photo just screams 'mid 80s!' to me.... i'm sure it will be resolved if Del78 posts the un-altered pic up!

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #16 on:** July 30, 2010, 03:40:54 AM »

I can do that:

barrett · « **Reply #17 on:** July 30, 2010, 03:53:41 AM »

Well, that looks like an Ogle badge to me!
Not on the DVLA as far as I can see though, at least not under 'ogle' or 'mini'

Allan L · « **Reply #18 on:** July 30, 2010, 04:09:29 AM »

That number is now on a 2009 AUDI TT QUATTRO TFSI S-A, whatever that is.
It is a Hertfordshire number of course, as would be appropriate for Ogle ( in Letchworth, as I am).

And maybe it had an 850cc engine (or 848 to be exact...)?
Think I would put money on it being an Ogle (not much though as I'm not a gambling man!)

This is a Nostalgia NC Coupe, also known as an Ogle SX1275.
Anyone spot any differences between it and the Ogle SX1000?
