Heritage Customs, Re - imagining a British icon
​
At Heritage Customs, we believe the Land Rover Defender is more than just a vehicle — it’s a timeless British icon, a symbol of rugged adventure and enduring craftsmanship. But in today’s market, the Defender demands more than just function; it deserves a thoughtful restoration that elevates it into a bespoke masterpiece, blending heritage with high-end refinement.
​
Our passion lies in transforming classic Defenders into personalised works of art that combine the vehicle’s legendary toughness with the sophistication expected by discerning UK clients. Whether you’re wanting to utilize your defender on the streets of Mayfair or exploring the rolling estates of the Cotswolds, a Heritage Customs Defender delivers unmatched style, comfort, and performance.
​
The Heritage Customs Approach
​
Every project starts with a thorough restoration — a meticulous nut-and-bolt rebuild designed to revive the Defender’s original character while enhancing durability and driveability. A new galvanised chassis, new body panels, and a choice of our many refurbished engines or cutting-edge electric conversions tailored to your preferences.
​
But where Heritage Customs truly shines is in the bespoke luxury interiors. We replace the Defender’s classic utilitarian cabin with hand-stitched leather seats, premium carpets, and exquisite wood or metal detailing. We aim to integrate modern conveniences seamlessly — from lcd screens and premium sound systems to air conditioning and heated seating — all without compromising the Defender’s iconic silhouette.
​
