The Intermeccanica Roadster Convertible D is widely regarded as the immediate successor to the legendary Speedster, retaining the timeless styling while offering greater comfort and practicality. With its taller windscreen, wind-up windows and more supportive seating, it is the perfect choice for those wanting classic looks with improved touring capability.

This exceptional right-hand drive example was imported new in 2008, successfully passed its SVA (Single Vehicle Approval) inspection prior to registration, and is correctly registered with the DVLA as an Intermeccanica on the V5.

Power comes from an exceptional 2.2-litre Volkswagen Type 4 air-cooled engine, professionally built by renowned American engine specialist Jake Raby. Performance is transferred through a Kennedy Stage 3 half-race clutch, complemented by hydraulic clutch actuation, significantly reducing pedal effort while providing precise engagement.

Having covered just 6,500 miles, this beautifully presented exampe has been carefully maintained from new and offers an outstanding driving experience.

Finished in elegant Ivory with dark brown unlike many replicas, Intermeccanica has earned an international reputation for exceptional build quality, engineering excellence and attention to detail. The Convertible D is an incredibly rare sight in the UK, particularly in right-hand drive.

The car has been maintained since new by NBA Automotive at Dunsfold Aerodrome, one of the UK’s leading air-cooled Volkswagen and Porsche specialists, giving complete confidence in its mechanical condition.

The combination of the superb Jake Raby engine, lightweight construction and beautifully engineered chassis makes this one of the finest driving recreations available today. Whether cruising country roads or touring Europe, it delivers effortless performance together with the unmistakable character of an air-cooled flat-four.

Finding a genuine right-hand drive Intermeccanica Convertible D is exceptionally difficult, and examples with this level of provenance, specification and low mileage are rarer still.
