Description
I had just parked the car in Newport when I saw this car being parked. I knew what it was and just had to take a shot of it - for Rob, Andrew and the rest of the car show photographers!
Although the Dolomite proved to be refined and rapid, competitors such as the BMW 2002 had a performance advantage which was costing Triumph dearly, both in terms of sales and prestige. To remedy this, Triumph unveiled the Dolomite Sprint in June 1973, although the launch had been delayed by a year; it had been due to go on sale in 1972.

I remember that the Dolomites had an alloy head which was prone to warping. Now, Clive, I bet that bit of knowledge surprised you coming from me!
Stunning capture Clive. God Bless.

Nice shot Clive. The condition of the body and paint suggests to me that somebody had spent time and money bringing this little beauty back to its former glory.
