The Convertible variant was an alternative to the Rolls Royce Corniche. The Interceptor production came to an end in May of 1976 with a total of 509 Convertibles produced.

The car is fully documented with an excellent file or receipts and records of maintenance and history. The car has been exceptionally well cared for its entire life as evident from the condition of the car and the meticulous records that have been kept on the car. The car wears an older paint job that shows very well for its age. There are very few flaws in the paint and it still retains a beautiful deep shine and luster. All of the trim and chrome show very well for its age showing minimal wear or damage. The interior is brand new. The leather is a high quality European leather and Wilton wool carpet. The convertible top is the original top and shows well for its age (small tear in the passenger side behind the rear quarter window and some small fraying in the upper portion of the top). The engine starts right up and runs smoothly and does not smoke under start up or acceleration. The carb has been rebuilt as well as the starter and alternator and quite a bit of the wiring has been sorted and or replaced. The engine is very smooth and powerful having benefitted from a fresh service and tune up. The transmission is smooth and shifts through all of the gears smoothly. The brakes feel good and solid and show no signs of fade. The steering and suspension are smooth and tight and the front shocks and springs, all joints and tie rods have just been replaced including brand new tires. All of the electronics are functioning as designed including all of the exterior and interior lights and the convertible top opens and closes as it should including all four windows. This is an outstanding example of a very rare British luxury convertible from a rare and unique manufacturer.
