Inverted Camel trophy colour scheme - your thoughts ?
I'm a real big fan of the look of the orange defender with the black add-ons, but, having a black 110 I certainly wouldn't re-spray it !!
Anyway I was wondering if anyone had seen the reverse done, i.e a black defender with orange chequer plate, roof rack and so on ?
Do you think it would work ?
Opinions and abuse welcome Smile

It wouldn't be for me, it may look a little..."Halfords' !

How about a full orange wrap?

Not exactly Camel Trophy nor even "inverted" Camel Trophy - they weren't orange, and were all one colour (aside from some black details).

You could be right with G4, I'm a novice to this Defender malarkey, anyway, orange bonnet / roof looks pants Embarassed
Powder coated accessories might work though Thumbs Up

If you want the ex RAC van look go for it, each to their own as people on here are fond of saying Wink Steve.
Owned numerous Land Rover vehicles of all shapes and sizes over the decades.
Current Defender: A non tarts hand-bagged Puma 110 XS USW.

[Insert something impressive here such as extensive list of previous Land Rovers or examples of your prestigeous and expensive items, trinkets, houses, bikes, vehicles etc]

Hello Motoberg

I recently drove a Thor Defender with just a few items given an 'accent' colour
less is often more... but as we know for the purists nothing is always best... Exclamation

I think the Towing Eyes bolted to the Chassis Front and Back have both an aesthetic and practical
reason to be signal orange... Thumbs Up SKIP
