Insight summary

Triumph Sprint is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 4,633 represented vehicles and 0.01% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 87.8% from 32,608 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 76. The current pool shows an average of 30,932 miles and an average age of 18.7 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 30,958 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, and the most frequent defect themes are tyre condition, brake pads and horn not working. The practical read is that the Triumph Sprint looks convincing in this view, especially where normal wear items have been kept on top of.
