Wasn't sure what I saw there first. Is this real, or is this a RC model, but a very detailed one then...? The antenna(s) for the RC control surely seem in place.
You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

No info on it sadly, but seen pictures of similar ones in Russia. World would be boring if we all liked the same things. All I can say is im glad we dont!

Ericvv yes it's real. I've got another picture in my phone where it's shown the french license plate.
I posted this picture in a Colombian forum and a guy told me: maybe this axles are from a UNIMOG, because it's lifted a lot. |

It hardly even looks like a Defender now
An engine to TDi for!

I bet it's not even much better offroad than a stock 110... That's just asking for your diffs/propshaft/gearbox to break in my opinion. Personally, less is more. Cheers, David

It's very unlikely that it's using standard running gear.
Not sure about the French plate, but this sort of thing is pretty common in Iceland and is built for their particular terrain. It'd obviously look out of place in Sainsburys car park but that doesn't mean it's without purpose.

I think its cool, would look at home in Iceland.
That said, chrome rims are unforgivable. |

Best pair of door mirrors I've seen on a Defender.
Land Rover Defenders. 67 years heritage, minimal appearance changes, still going strong all over the world. Not a fashion vehicle, but fashionable to own. Made for the needy, not the greedy. Ta ta Defender |
