The 4WD Triumph 1300 ? It existed, for sure, and was written off in a big accident on an early rallycross event.
For those who know their Triumphs, it was really an amalgam of 1300 structure, Le Mans Spitfire engine, and 'Pony' four-wheel-drive transmission. Interestingly enough, the front and rear axle/diff ratios were slightly different from each other, but in the mud/snow conditions of rallycross that never seemed to matter ....

I well remember this car Roger, quite effective, if a tad ugly, if I may say so! But with the mud that was on the circuits at the time, it hardly mattered!Be sure to ask them about the Toledo 4wd car used in Rallycross by Brian Culcheth. It was such a logical engineering development , I always thought. He had a couple of good photos of it at Richard's . I always recall the car from period yet some years ago I was rebuked in this place for suggesting such a car existed....
