There are lots of cheaper rovers and defenders out there. There are lots of Rovers that claim to be the best in the USA or the best in the world. We don't need to claim to build the best. The work speaks for itself. 2014 SEMA award winning Himalaya. If you know what SEMA is, there is no better way to judge the validity of a claim. We welcome restoration of your Defender or Series Land Rover. We also provide service and repairs to Range Rover, Discovery and all Land Rovers.

Please note. While this is a full restoration and a huge list of brand new replacement parts, please keep in mind there will be some original parts that are refurbished. This truck is nearly 50 years old, a true classic that can now be used as a daily driver.

Good original and rebuilt Series and Defenders fetch a fortune in the US to the extent that their customs have got serious about crushing dodgy replated imports. They were only imported up to about 1971 and a couple of thousand in the 90s.

Spare wheel on the bonnet is the proper place and was standard up to 1999, you get used to it
