New Kahn/Chelsea Truck
Never thought I’d pay Kahn/Chelsea Truck a complement, but strangely the squared off bodywork, to me at least, makes it look closer to the classic Defender than the stock varient from JLR. Let’s be clear, it’s OTT, it’s pimp, it’s slammed, it’s Kahn. But something about the silhouette of the four corners is, in my eyes, an improvement. It still is what it is though….

I missed off expensive. Too true. I also missed off ‘silly’ - 23” wheels anyone? Can’t stand the interior, can’t stand the wheels, etc etc. But a couple of the shots, if you squint, gives a squarer old skool Def form. And it’s that which I spotted. Even front on. Am I seeing too much….

I think you've gone mad. Those slapped on bits of plastic look more than a bit Blue Peter. https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews

Grenadier, get back on the medication quickly, before it's too late! Were you not warned this might happen if you stopped taking it? Rolling with laughter
