Defender that drives as a Range Rover !
Anybody aware of a company that suplies/converts Defenders [esp 90's] to run like a Range Rover but with the body of a Defender?

That company down in Cornwall did a Defender 90 conversion.
lowered it, leathered it and gave it a feel close to what you are talking about.
They are always in the mags.
something bridge of the top of my head. regards

But it wasn't the pink one, it was a shiny blue one with a cream interior.
No good for off roading though Sad regards
