May the Fourth be with the design studio that produced not only the three-wheeled Robin, and a Popemobile, but also Luke Skywalker's SoroSuub X-34 Landspeeder.

May Fourth is, unofficially, Star Wars Day, a celebration of all things Wookiee-adjacent. It takes its name from 'May the force be with you,' a phrase that comes in handy if you wish to greet a Jedi or annoy a Star Trek fan. On such a day it seems fitting to celebrate a vehicle from such a cultural juggernaut, and what better example than the one that was actually a car underneath: Luke Skywalker's SoroSuub X-34 Landspeeder.

Among other things, it was Karen who designed the original Marble Run building toy, something that almost everyone has played and every parent has cursed about, after slipping on a wayward roller.One of Ogle's biggest automotive clients was Reliant, though Karen would also design shooting brakes for Jaguar and Aston Martin. His best-known work is probably the Reliant Scimitar GTE, a wagon-backed coupe that became synonymous with Princess Anne, sister to King Charles.
