A fantastic video, & honestly the old defenders are so much nicer looking then the new model. It’s a really nice looking set up.

I've seen a lot of overlanding Defenders but I think this is the nicest one I've seen.

Awesome defender, can see a lot of time, effort, thought and money has been invested into this defender, amazing 👏

You had my attention with the color, no wait, the spot lights, no wait, the awning, shit I loved the thing. Great job, thanks, RickGTI…..🇺🇸

You said it right at the beginning of the video. That is the coolest expedition Defender I have ever seen. Sweet!

Great video well presented that Defender is a must have for anyone in the market for an expedition Defender

Defender is the best car for expeditions. This car is the key to your journey.

Absolutely amazing, thanks for the tour

Incredible defender, perfect, not sure what I’m doing with mine yet, just bought it and has stood for a few years so lots of mechanical work first but if I could make it half as nice as that one I’d be a happy man

Well done. Magnificent!!!

Great build

Love this video!

Great video 👍👍👍

Beautiful vehicle.complete everything

Mind blowing work 👍. Great skill 👌. Unique vehicle to have fun with.any were to venture out.

Awsome rig

Love it!❤️

Awesome build, any ideas where to find decent side lockers which do not break the bank?

El mejor del mundo felicidades

Great job fitting the AluCab roof abs fabricating the interior. How much does it weigh? That’s a massive amount t if added weight before you get to packing it for overlanding.

Nice.👍

Wow, amazing car

Agreed..Best Defender....out there....

Great build. The details and Overlanding styling just made this into a beast. How many Defenders have you gone through inthe past couple years?

Ein Traum!👍

wow. exactly perfect video of the worlds! what 's the body color of defender? blue?

It is Amazing, but how much of that stuff would you actually use? I travelled a lot ,way back then , in a very old, very basic, Defender. I was happy if it started and I wasn’t cold at night!

What a landy!! Right up my street!! Nene overland have one at the moment, BUT, seriously big ££££. Am a big fan of the landies, but being over 6 foot, I do find them a little short on space!!!

Dont get me wrong I love the defender it just looks like its really top heavy and really close to the max weight

@wright-adventure

Hello Charles, not as heavy as you would imagine, the new roof weight is distributed across the whole, I used to have a roof tent and weight of that concentrated in one area was far more noticeable. Additionally in the back most of the load area is just empty space.

Love It :)

Too good

Hi, love the camper conversion! I have an identical rolling shell here that I am going to strip down, fit a 300tdi and respray before getting it rigged out for camping. Looks like I will need to be in touch with you regarding that aspect next year! In the meantime do you know the colour of this Defender as I would like to use it on my Landy? Many Thanks.

That’s a lot of kit. Two awnings?? Two lock boxes? How much does it weigh - over3 tons?

Awesome. Great build. I would have to say that the Isuzu 4BD1T was engine of choice for overloading, albeit they were only available from factory in Australia. Absolutely bullet-proof and heaps of torque from idle from the 3.9. How do you find the awning in terms of weight?

Thanks for the interest, unfortunately I’m no longer building these vehicles there are some German companies that do.

For the first time in a long time, I have become sexually aroused. I joke, but I would love to have that in my life. Subscribed.

Landy's are great just as long as you replace the engine, gearbox, brakes, electrics, suspension and give it a ton of soundproofing. Oh and blast the chassis and galvanise it.

Is this engine (2004) 300 TDi Diesel Turbo a green engine? I mean, is it an Environmental-friendly type of engine?

Sadly we are looking to sell. Many upgrades even on this incredible vehicle we have done - upgraded brake system including stainless steel braided pipes, tow bar with extender to carry bikes and all non spot lights upgraded to led plus so much more. But the game changer was the anti roll bars … Heavy duty to rear and OEM to front and the handling is incredible…Please message if interested !
