Under Exposure problem

Hello,

I am hoping someone can help me here, I am experiencing a problem with my D70, in that whenever I take a shot of a car from head on with it's headlights on the result is a massively under exposed shot with just the headlights visible. I should mention that these are shots taken in perfect light, and with Shutter priority mode on (at around 1/320ths or so). The lens is a crappy Tamron 300mm lens (Nikon 200mm f2.8 on it's way thankfully), but I feel the problem is in the camera as my mate with same body but 300mm Nikon lens experiences the same problem.

Am I doing something wrong, is there a setting I am overlooking, or am I a victim of a lens that should be no more than an ugly paperweight?
