She is Jill Price, Charles' sister by the looks of it. Which is a rather nice touch in my view!

I notice that the web pages have a copyright date of 2012.

About time for an update, me thinks.

You can see on the 1000th M3W all the names of the people who actually participated in designing building the car... Full article available on latest MOG magazine...

Family disputes and character clashes must surely be an inevitable part of running such a company such as this. The struggle for power and dominance by one sibling over another may be one explanation, mismanagement or extravagance of lifestyle by one may be another.
The public nature of this sacking is regrettable and may well weaken the structure.
IMHO the whole travel direction of the company is in question. i.e.
Cash flooding out into several new technologies at once; electric propulsion, magnesium structures, racing ventures, failure to consolidate existing designs or addressing their minor design flaws.
To best please existing customers and reward their loyalty to the brand I would like to see more attention being paid to known issues and finally quality control.
For gods sake keep the sliding pillars but get some gaiters to dress them in and a minor matter of remote greasing points; like those fitted standard on many pre-war vehicles.

Shakespeare was THE great observer of human behaviour. What HE saw we still see today and its usually full of drama.
I am no particular fan but always self employed and I have often been witness to the type of scenario.
A wayward cousin of mine brought his father's family firm to its knees by extravagant living then big errors of judgement, before finally being ousted by his elder sister. My uncle lost his pension and was forced to downsize his house, the firm eventually sold on to a responsible manager.
My own lessons taught me NEVER to put 100% trust in a business partner however close the relationship.
