The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

Thanks GTS290N.

Do you have any paperwork or photo related to Guthrie Bros you can share related to your Dolomite.

Unfortunately not - I kept nothing of the car, and as it was a trade sale at almost 5 years old it didn't come with much. I do remember the paper receipt for £750 cash, but when the car was scrapped in 1983 I binned everything.

I spotted this advert for the dealer where my car was first sold on internet.

Thank you a new dealer for me. That is an odd name. Looks as if the http://woottonbridgeiow.org.uk will not allow links to their images.

Sparshatts were a big outfit in the Southampton area. Lex Mead was the other big Triumph and Rover outfit.

The 26th article in my series about Triumph car dealers and features P W Barker Ltd of Worcester. http://vitessesteve.blogspot.co.uk/2016 ... h-car.html

If you have any more information or recollections about P W Barker Ltd of Worcester, photos of window stickers, dealer badges or sill plates etc please let me know.

One of my Toledos came from Holloway Barker. I believe it came about, when a Rover (Holloway) and Triumph (PW Barker)dealership combined.

I think it would be worth you speaking to a good friend of mine in Malvern, who was in charge of the Triumph dealership network at the time. Send me a message on triumphtoledo@hotmail.com if you want his details.
