I have a Dolomite only just gone over 45,000 miles. It was one of the last registered in Oct. 1962 two and a half years after production ended and first owned by a retiring BL employee who had it put away till he retired. He wanted a Dolomite to enjoy in his retirement and the replacement Acclaim would not do being a re badged Honda, He kept it until 2008 when in his 90s had to give up driving. Its won best in show a few times but wouldn't now but is still in original un restored condition. I love it.
