I've tried to link it but failed, but if you've got "realplayer" (a free download) have a look at this <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
http://tv-ark.org.uk, then look under adverts and select h-l<br>

That's a cool advert. There are some other non-dolomite ads recently posted on austin-rover.co.uk, including a particularly mental dutch mini advert.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

<br>
Never seen a tv advert for the Dolomite but in recent times two for the FWD 1500 have been shown.<br>
<br>
There was that series on bbc2 <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>We Love the 70's</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> they showed one where Captain Peacock from <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Are You Being Servred</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> was a Leyland salesman trying to sell two elderly ladies a 1500, only to finally see them sail off in a Spitfire whooping and waving their arms about <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Then another appears in that old Channel 4 programme <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Classic Marques</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> (I think that's what its called) anyway its the one with Graham Robson presenting it. Again a 1500 appears in an advert where it is on stage at a soho night club!!! It appears on stage flashing its lights and waving it doors whilst scantily clad women dance about it, whilst men in raincoats in the audience get excited <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
Maybe not the best way to target an audience but of course this <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>WAS</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> the early 70's!<br>
<br>
Shame that there hasn't been a DVD realease of these along with production footage. Standard - Triumph did have its own film unit so there must be miles of footage locked away in Gaydon.

Rally Sprint and 1300 Dolomite featured. I've played it loads of times but I cannot hear what the old ladies in the Dolomite 1300 are saying, something like "slow down Ethel ? ? ? ?"<br>
<br>
Anyone fill in the missing bit please.<br>

The main road through baglan is a dual carriageway, don't have to suffer as long if your doing 70mph <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END-->

the SD1...wonderful car but so badly made...<br>
As its Battle of Britain season we could echo the words of Winston...<br>
<br>
Never in the field of Britsh Car production has such a wonderful car been made so badly and survived to be so few...<br>

Have you a good word(S) to say about anything.<br>

I have loads of good words to say about SD1's.<br>
Its just such a shame they weren't built better.<br>
I also love my Sprint, 1850's, spit and Landy in a way.<br>
And my series 3 Sov as well...<br>
Maybe I should start a "best car" thread, lest you all think I'm Mr negative....<br>
