Every Vanderhall is built by hand in Utah: an aluminium body over an aluminium chassis, a turbocharged engine, and nothing between you and the sky. Two models, both on the island. We bring one to your door for a test drive.
Two wheels up front, one at the back, and a 1.5-litre turbo over the front axle. At 640 kg in running order — the figure from the EU Certificate of Conformity, not a brochure — the whole car weighs about as much as three touring motorcycles. Which is why 185 PS feels the way it does.
You drive it like a car — steering wheel, two pedals, automatic gearbox — but it feels like nothing else on the road. Wood-rimmed wheel, analogue gauges, patented Formula 1–inspired front suspension. And with sun on Cyprus almost year-round, "roadster weather" is most of the calendar.
Same engine, same chassis, same heated seats. What changes is how you get in — and how much weather you're willing to take.
You step over the side and drop in. At 114 cm it's the lowest thing on the road, and you shift with the bump lever on the sill beside your hip — push forward to drop a gear, pull back to go up. The purist's pick.
Doors you open and walk through, and a noticeably wider cabin — real shoulder room for two. The removable Capshade roof gives you shade when a Cyprus July gets serious. The one for long days out.
You sit low, between the front wheels, with the windscreen barely above the bonnet. No roof over you, no door beside you — just the road, the noise and the air.
On a mountain pass it feels closer to a motorcycle than a car — except you're sitting in a heated seat, holding a wood-rimmed wheel, and there's a lockable glovebox for your phone.

No forms, no waiting room, no pressure. One WhatsApp message and we arrange a private drive at a time and place that suits you.
These are photos of the actual car that comes to you — not renders.
Tap WhatsApp and tell us which car you're curious about. We reply personally — usually within the hour.
Pick your time and a meeting point anywhere on the island. We bring the car, fully prepped, and walk you through it.
Take the wheel on roads you know. No clock running, no obligation — just the open-air drive itself.
The same hardware in both cars.
Direct-injected four with variable valve timing, paired to a 6-speed automatic that senses downhill grades and holds a lower gear — you'll appreciate it coming down from Troodos.
Vanderhall's patented front suspension keeps both front wheels planted through a corner — you feel the road without being beaten up by it.
Pair your phone and play straight through the cabin — loud enough to beat the wind.
Keyless — press and go, with an immobiliser watching the car when you're not.
Driver and passenger, plus full cabin heating — an open car you can still enjoy in winter.
Tuning is our trade — it's in our name. Our ECU remap lifts the 1.5-litre turbo from 185 to 220 PS. At 640 kg, every one of those horses counts double.
Already a better power-to-weight ratio than a current Porsche 911 Carrera.
Within touching distance of a 911 GT3 — at less than half the GT3's weight.
A remap is a modification to the standard vehicle. Before you decide, we'll explain openly what it means for warranty and registration — no small print, no surprises.
A Vanderhall is registered as a motor tricycle, not a car — which licence class covers it depends on your licence and age. Rather than guess, message us and we'll confirm your specific case before you commit to anything.
You get wet — it's an open vehicle, and we won't pretend otherwise. There's a lockable glovebox for your valuables, tailored covers are available for parking, and the Carmel's Capshade keeps the sun (and light drizzle) off. On Cyprus, rainy days are the exception you plan around.
Here, realistically, yes. Every car has heated seats and full cabin heating as standard — a Cyprus winter day is exactly what they were built for. Summer at noon, you'll want the Carmel's shade or an early start.
Test drive first — we bring the car to you. If you want one, the price you see is the price incl. shipping and VAT; registration and any extras come on top and we'll quote them clearly before you decide. We usually keep a small number of individual cars in stock, and those tend to carry a higher specification — they're ready to drive away. If you'd rather have your own colour and spec, we'll order the car built for you. Either way it comes with its EU Certificate of Conformity, which is the paperwork Cyprus registration is based on.
Send one message and we'll bring a Vanderhall to you. No showroom, no script — just the open road and the sun.
