The Defender nameplate made its appearance in 1983, but the vehicle itself can actually be directly traced all the way to the original Series 1 of 1948. Few vehicles in the world can lay claim to such fame, and the Defender (together with the Series) remain legendary examples of what Land Rover used to stand for – tough, utilitarian, no-nonsense transportation over almost any terrain. If you’ve been a fan of these vehicles, here’s a hurrah for you in the form of a 1995 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod that’s fresh from a 2021 restoration by Transatlantic Trading Company in England. Using a chassis from a French vehicle, it’s a leftie, so don’t worry about sitting on the wrong side of the road in North America. It’s also got a tasty surprise under the hood, but to find out what, you will need to read on.
Exterior and Interior
The iconic lines of the Defender changed very little from the Series, and continued all the way until the model was retired in 2016. This 1995 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod wears a new paint job of what appears to be a metallic gray in some light, shifting towards a green hue from certain angles as we can see in the photos. The seller reports new doors, new lights, and it rolls on a set of stylish five-spoke Land Rover alloys, wrapped in the requisite all terrain tires. Climb aboard the interior using the side steps for assistance, and you’re greeted by a black theme with seating for up to eight passengers in addition to the driver. This is made possible, as in addition to the two front seats and three rear seats, there are two facing benches behind, with two seat belts each. An aftermarket steering wheel adorns the helm, and you gaze at a mostly stock instrument cluster, with the addition of a tachometer neatly sitting in your field of view. There’s also a lockable cubby for your valuables, the seller reports that the air conditioning unit is new, and an Alpine stereo system brings Bluetooth capabilities to the table. Glance upwards and you’re greeted by new alcantara headliner.
Engine
A Defender would typically pack a stout turbodiesel engine, or unstressed petrol mill beneath its hood, but not this 1995 Land Rover Defender 110 Restomod. Instead, you’ll find a 3.2L BMW S52 straight six neatly nestling within. If that sounds familiar, it’s because the S52 powered the North American post-facelift E36 M3, and delivered 240hp and 236lb-ft. It’s also happy to spin up to 7,000rpm. Sending the power to the wheels is a six speed manual gearbox. The seller reports a laundry list of mods and refreshments across the vehicle, including new air intake, new air filter, air mass meter, new fuel system, fuel pressure regulator, new fuel system, a custom fabricated fan shroud, new suspension, new struts, and new exhaust. Finally, there’s reportedly been a recent alignment and oil change, making this Landie ready to hit the streets and trails.
Built for adventure and reimagined with V8 power, this 1986 Land Rover Defender 110 blends the iconic ruggedness of the classic Defender with upgraded drivability and custom expedition-inspired enhancements.

The build is further elevated by a host of premium upgrades including a Kahn widebody kit, upgraded drivetrain components, and a fully reimagined interior. With right-hand drive configuration and climate-controlled storage, this Defender offers a rare opportunity to own a highly refined and thoughtfully executed restomod that balances rugged capability with everyday drivability.

Inside, it’s a veritable Nineties time capsule with gray cloth upholstery and inward-facing bench seats that mean up to nine people can go adventuring in this machine!
When two iconic British luxury brands collaborate, the result is something truly special. This 2016 Land Rover Range Rover SV Autobiography LWB Holland & Holland Edition represents one of the most exclusive Range Rovers ever produced, developed by Jaguar Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations division in partnership with the renowned London gunmaker Holland & Holland. Built in limited numbers and featuring bespoke craftsmanship throughout, this ultra-luxury SUV combines the legendary off-road capability of a Range Rover with the refinement and exclusivity typically reserved for handcrafted grand touring automobiles.
