The Dolomite Sprint Series 4 offered was first registered in February 1980 and is presented ready for its next adventure after being thoroughly recommissioned by Ant and his team.

It is finished in Inca Yellow, which is much more unusual than the Mimosa Yellow which the first batch of Sprints made were all painted in, as this is a late Series 4 example, the Sprint’s final incarnation.

Series 4s are considered more desirable and are definitely rarer, with only 834 produced in the model’s 7 year production run.

Series 4s benefit from detailed improvements, most notably in having dual circuit brakes and a speedo calibrated in clearer 20mph increments.

The drivers door mirror and rear fog light were also obligatory from 1st January 1st 1980, to meet new regulations.

This car was purchased for restoration by Ant after being dry stored for some years.

The previous owner had spent over £18,000 on restoring it over a period of years but not quite finished the task.
