Ice, Delft, Sapphire

Whilst I do know at least one exists, I have never seen a Valencia blue Dolomite.
I think a Sprint would look good in this colour…?

I know of a couple of Valencia Blue Toledos and of course it was hugely popular on the 1300FWD

But the colour was dropped from the Triumph palette in 71 so you won't find it on either a Dolomite (1850) introduced in 72 or a Sprint, (June 73 but anything other then Mimosa didn't arrive till several months later)

I know of at least 2 ice blue Sprints and a handfull in Sapphire, but i've not knowingly seen one in Delft Blue. Not even sure I know what Delft looks like!

I also like the old "Royal Blue" but that also was dropped in 71.
