Description

The Triumph name started in 1886 selling imported bicycles, they started producing motorcycles in 1902 and motor cars in 1920. Purchased by the Standard Motor Company in 1945, and from 1959 was known as Standard Triumph. Purchased by Leyland Motors in 1960, which became British Leyland in 1968. The Herald was replaced in 1965 with a new small car, the Triumph 1300, then in 1970, the Triumph 1500, it got a remodelled front and rear and larger 1493cc engine.

The Dolomite, introduced in 1972, was the final car in Triumphs small car range. It was sold along side the Toledo, the Dolomite, a more upmarket model. In 1973 the sporty Sprint was introduced with power to keep up with its competitors, it got a 16 valve cylinder head, larger capacity, 1998cc (over standard 1850) and larger carbys giving it 127hp.To distinguish it from the standard Dolomite, it also got a black vinyl roof, alloy wheels, front spoiler, LSD, twin exhausts and lowered suspension
