A model-by-model history of the popular Triumph Dolomite family,
the range of quality sporting saloons that started with the Triumph
1300 and was in production from 1965-80. The Triumph 1300 was
innovative, with front-wheel drive and a four-door body designed by
Giovanni Michelotti. In 1970 the Triumph 1500 and the three-door
Toledo were introduced, followed by the range-topping Dolomite in
1972, with Triumph's slant-4 overhead cam engine and rear-wheel
drive. The fast Dolomite Sprint confirmed Triumph's position as the
British 'BMW Beater' in 1973, with its powerful 16-valve engine and
value achieved through clever engineering. In 1976 the whole range
was renamed 'Dolomite' - and was a well-rounded model spread of
four-door saloons, with engine sizes from 1300cc to 2 litres. With
technical specifications and over 150 colour photographs, Triumph
Dolomite - An Enthusiast's Guide also includes competition history,
the Dolomites' ancestors, and a guide to buying and owning these
iconic saloons.
