Triumph Dolomite Sprint (Gerry Marshall 1978) in Blue and White (1:43 scale by Vanguards VA05312)
This diecast model Triumph Dolomite Sprint (Gerry Marshall 1978) is Blue and White and features working wheels.
Although often associated with Vauxhall, Gerry Marshall won two 1978 Production Saloon Championships in the Triumph Dolomite Sprint modelled here. He debuted the car on March 5th 1978 at Brands Hatch and raced it twenty-eight times during the season; winning three races outright and scoring an amazing twenty-five class victories.
The Marshall/Sprint combination was so dominant in 1978 that during a race at Donington he came into the pits only to tell his worried crew that he had “…stopped to let the rest catch up a bit”, before storming out of the pits to score another win.
1:43 scale (approx. 9cm / 3.5in long) - made by Vanguards.
Limited edition of 1450 pieces worldwide complete with numbered certificate.
