Triumph Dolomite Sprint hmmmmm, Fan-bloody-tastic motor that :D . My Dad bought one when I was about 6 years old; British racing green with the 'fancy' steel rims ;), loved it to bits 'till a daft bint drove into the side of it when she decided to take an earlier exit off a roundabout :mad: :rolleyes: .... wrote the car off :( .
T'was a damn quick motor (well for a six year old it felt like a Ferrari ;) ) and my Dad used to see off all sorts in it.

Got any pic's Deathstar? I'd love to see one again.

Cheers,
Jonny

WOW! :D She's a beauty.

What a blast from the past mate, thought I was lookin at my Dad old mota for a sec there :D :) :D ! Are those the original rims on it? Can't quite see them but they look how I remember.

And yeah, it's weird how silly old bints seem to be 'tractor-beamed' into the side of them. IIRC the old bugger who hit us was driving an Austin Maxi :p , it was 20-odd years ago tho'!

Hope you get a 2***** soon mate but whatever you do don't let the Dolomite go, it's a classic ;) (and probably the last decent motor Triumph built).

Cheers,
Jonny

insurance.... aye there's the rub.

Tescos prices have rocketed recently... but I got a bunch of quotes the other week (I'll be 26 with 5 years no claims) and the prices range from £630 (Insure Shop) to a staggering £3,500 (cant remember who, someone on the confused.com search). :eek:

Tescos are quite expensive now, I think they came in at about £1,200...

keep looking, you may get a pleasant surprise... tho Im sure I should be talking on another forum ;)
