History and Popularity
The Convertible D was introduced as a premium version of the Speedster, offering more comfort and practicality. Although externally very similar to the Speedster, it offers a higher degree of usability for everyday use. The name “Convertible D” was only established later; the first 14 units had the inscription “Speedster D” on the front fender.
The Convertible D is already registered in the Netherlands and is ready for its next owner!
