1977 Triumph Dolomite 1500
VGT 386R displayed at the Festival of Steam and Transport 2019. Historic Dockyard Chatham.
From this angle looking very much like the earlier Triumph Toledo. However the Dolomite 1500 has a good size boot, whereas the Toledo using the bodyshell from the even earlier Triumph 1300 had a small boot.
A bold (or may be desperate) move from Triumph to go from front drive on the Triumph 1300 and Triumph 1500 to use rear wheel drive on the similar later range of Triumph Dolomites.
