Bespoke 18" Signature Alloys in Matt Black with BF Goodrich All Terrain tyres
Comprehensive LED lighting upgrade including headlights and daytime running lights
Retrimmed interior with black leather and green contrast stitching
The Appeal
The Defender is a legend. A natural evolution of the original Land Rover, this handsome square-sided SUV may be utilitarian, but that's where its real majesty lays - those simple mechanics, straightforward aesthetics and impressive off-road make it immensely practical as well as a blank slate for all manner of modifications and upgrades.
This 2008 County example acts as a superb ambassador for exactly that. Thoughtfully upgraded with a Bespoke interior, the car carries 18" signature alloys and a comprehensive LED lighting package. The interior is now beautifully wrapped in black leather with green contrast stitching, and the engine's been treated to a Stage 1 Performance Enhancement package. The result is an excellent example from rooftop to tyres.
