Triumph Dolomite Sprint which i had in 1979, i believe the first production UK car with a 16 valve head, i loved it.

Fast little saloon cars. They also had overdrive in some gears, was it 3rd and 4th?. Wooden surround dash, nice cloth seats and went pretty well. My memory is a bit hazy. but  think the 16v had a reputation for warping the heads if they weren't run with a 75% coolant mix. Aftermarket kenlowes were a good choice also.

Loved the old Dolly's, there's a sprint kicking around locally which I see on a sunny day .

Nice looking little car - I've always loved sporty sedans and this one resembles a poor man's Alfa GTV.  Not sure about that colour, though - lol....

Wow, that's a rare find - an Alpine A110 on the street in the US - I'll bet this thing is a blast to drive. 

We had an Alpine in the UK too.  Not quite the same though.
