Triumph Dolomite 1300

Overview

Produced: 1976-1980, 32031 produced.
Types: Saloon, 4 doors, 4 seats

In 1976 a replacement for the Toledo arrived in the form of the Dolomite 1300. The new Dolomite model was really a blend of old Toledo features (the single headlamp front end) mixed in with Dolomite ingredients such as the plusher interior trim. New equipment also included improved suspension, a larger petrol tank and wider wheels.

Triumph had confused its customers (and dealers?) with its of engine/drive-line layout changes on previous 1300/1500/Toledo models. For the record this particular model used a conventional front facing engine and rear wheel drive layout. The engine was the tried and tested 1296cc unit found in the earlier models.
