A STATE-OF-THE-ART UPLIFT
Within a purpose‑built facility, our expert engineers hand‑rebuild carefully selected 2012–2016 donor vehicles to your exact specification. Reimagined from the chassis up, every Classic Defender V8 benefits from a suite of enhancements engineered for superior road holding and ride comfort, all while preserving the Defender’s legendary capability.
The engine delivers an impressive 405PS and 515Nm of torque. Coupled to an eight-speed ZF automatic gearbox with pistol gear shifter for exceptional drivability.
Enhanced braking is delivered via high performance 4-piston Alcon calipers, featuring 335mm discs at the front and 300mm discs at the rear.
For on-road comfort and dynamics, uniquely tuned Eibach coil springs and Bilstein shock absorbers are installed, with revised anti-roll bars, links and bushes.
Each Classic Defender V8 is equipped with Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) to help maintain composure even in the most challenging circumstances.
